RANDOM AUNTIE'S BIRTHDAY REDUX

well, now i have the power to put this up. here se is-AUNTIE! Lucille Schoenbeck. i don't know her 5 married names except the last one.

ahh, auntie and her desserts. when a child, if auntie didn't have at least 2 kinds of jello, 3 desserts. last year auntie had THREE cakes. but for her 95th she did get a special ordered poppyseed cake with lemon filling. and Eat Cake makes awsome buttercream frosting and decorated perfectly. auntie loves that other cake, but, i think it's nasty. sorry, but i am not impressed, but auntie loves her cherries.

Comments:
Your Aunt looks a great deal like my wife's recently departed Grandmother.

She was a Teschner (by marriage, anyway).

A great woman; I wasn't going to join her for coffee, but she would have a beer a day, and sometimes 2 in the heat of Summer.

I think the only offerings she didn't at least tolerate were Guiness Stout and whomever's Cat Tail Ale.

I think she was 91 at the time.

I'm not saying you would, but don't ever entertain the idea of a temporary stay in the "rehab" wing of a nursing home for your aunt, should she display signs of a stroke. That whole thing was a fiasco, and may have hastened Amelia's departure.

I don't buy into home schooling, but home/hospice care beats a nursing home hands down.
 
In this case, anonymous was pjk.

Two! 2 Comments! Hah Hah Ha!
 
weeee! comments!
auntie a few years broke her hip and was incarcerated in the 'chicken coop' as she called it. still complains. and so now she is back in her ranch home, but, well 95 and she isn't quite as zippy as she was.
