The Image Of A Proper Hostess...

(Feel free to use this image from one of my 1927 issues of Needlecraft magazine.)

A proper hostess always wears a fancy apron for entertaining.
Yesterday, I got out my good apron as the first of our guests arrived.
By the end of the week, our home and our hearts will be full.
Full to the brim with family and friends, fortunate to be together.

Years from now, we'll remember these times with smiles and affection.
We'll remember who was here for our special Florida week.
I think Kes is the most excited right now. She loves company, and
acts like every familiar or new face to arrive came just to see her.
Silly Labrador!
