How many cats do you see?

This cuddle of farm cats is on my front porch. Can you count them?

Saving Family Stories — lesson 11

Today I share a story from my father that took place in the late 1920s.

Dad told stories that made us laugh. His written stories weren’t as good as those he told, but they are special to all the family.

Don’t let your memories slip away. Write one down today.

Saving Family Stories — lesson 8

You might have a start with your family story collection in your kitchen drawer.

Today family recipes take center stage.

A collection of special recipes and some background might be the start of your very special book.

Start with one recipe and one story. Go easy. Finish the first collection entry before jumping to a second. Your recipes might become a perfect way to pass on family history.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
