Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Mother was a wonderful pie maker; her favorites were chocolate, lemon, or sweet potato.

Often, when you came in the house there would be two meringue pies on the kitchen table.
Every fall Mother would host her WMU circle from church and serve her sweet potato pie.
That gathering also required a thorough house cleaning, including windows, and woodwork.
My how times have changed!
