Our last TMBC party was on St. Patrick's Day...at Aunt Adda's house...
Looking back, we were SO NAIVE. The Coronavirus Lockdown was just hours away...but we didn't have a clue about the major changes that were coming our way.
Linda K., Linda P., Sandy and Aunt Adda (I was taking the pic).
 |
| After our lunch of homemade corned beef hash and Irish Soda Bread, Aunt Adda brought out my Great-Grandmother's Diary... |
 |
| Called "The Everyday Diary"" |
 |
| Her name was Minnie Soltau. And she wrote in her diary every single day. In pencil. |
At this point, I'm sure you are thinking I'm going to write about what Minnie and William were doing in 1938. Wouldn't that be fun??
 |
| I mean...I was feeling all warm and fuzzy -- Aunt Adda had just given me an embroidered tablecloth... |
We were definitely having a moment....
Until I said I'd love to read Great-Grandma Minnie's Diary....
Aunt Adda reached for the book and said...
"Sorry...it's not leaving my house..."
 |
| So -- this is as close as I could get... |
