Aunt Armeda’s custard recipe artistically preserved

(on our backdoor steps when Pretty and I got home yesterday)

One of my most faithful followers is local artist Donna Magrath who left this for me in a Food Lion shopping bag on our backdoor steps. She read my post about my Aunt Armeda’s custard recipe yesterday, recognized how I felt about the little scribbles, and preserved this treasure for me in her typical creative work.

Honestly, I am continually amazed by the goodness of people who care about others. I called Donna to let her know how moved I was by this piece and assured her it would have a place of prominence in my office. Today it sits on an antique writing desk next to my work area. I think my Aunt Armeda would have been pleased for her custard recipe to be displayed. My mother would have said well, I was in a hurry. I know I can write better than that. Did somebody spill egg on it?

Thank you, Donna, for “getting” me and my writing. I am inspired by you.

Thank you, also, to all my faithful followers around the world who allow me to invade your personal space with my words, thoughts, beliefs and hopes. While we breathe, we hope.
