We used to visit Aunt Mattie and Aunt Reba in Shenandoah. They lived in a house with 2 kitchens. Aunt Reba reserved one of them exclusively for baking and there were always sweet goodies when we visited
ReplyDeleteDid you ever hear the "Bobby Lucas stirs the gravy" story? If so, do you know who Bobby Lucas was?
