Apparently until Queen Victoria there was no traditional 65th anniversary gift; the charts jumped from 55th to 75th. Sapphire means blue in Greek. The sapphire stones are characterized by their extreme hardness exceeded only by the diamond and their color and transparency. The blue sapphire is often called the gem of the sky and it […]
Yes, it’s was always and is still the double dipping of February family events- February 5 would have been my parents’ 64th Anniversary… and today would have been my Mom’s 85th Birthday. I am pretty sure she would be baking cookies this weekend, as she did here in 2010 during our regular Thanksgiving time here in Arizona
It’s hard not too remember the tremendous outpouring of Cookielove when she passed away unexpectedly in 2011, her last batch of cookies on the table at her house, hidden under a puzzle box.

My nieces and my sister do a great job of carrying on Mom’s tradition; her a photo my sister just texted me

Today was Matzevah, being the date my sisters and I had picked to unveil the tombstone marker for her, adjacent to the ones for my Dad and my brother at the old Baltimore Hebrew Cemetery in Baltimore.

Alyce and Morris (aka “Mickey”) look so serious in their pose here, though Dad, in his pseudi Desi Arnez style, seems to have a twinkle in […]
