I found a letter my mother wrote to her sisters dated January 8, 1945. There was a recipe for her meat loaf and she wrote, "though I'd think you'd have a hard time getting the meat." This is because it was during the war and meat was rationed. Mother mentioned about her sister Dolly who made a wedding dress for me. She wrote, "It is beautifully done and Maurie (I went by my middle name then) looks like an angel in it. We took pictures of her in it in front of our xmas tree and when we print them I'll send you one."
Here I am in the dress
I'm blogging every day in April with a wonderful group of bloggers here at Effy's blog-along.
