Postcards from Home - Part I

The mail came today. There was a postcard from Aunt Mabel, and I quote:

"Dear Willy,
How do you like my new hairdo? Buford says I look just like Rita Hayworth. Your Grandpa got his ear chewed up by a coyote, and your Cousin Pete hitched a ride to LA to get on some TV show. The D.A.R. is having an ice cream social next Sunday and I just don't know what I'm gonna wear.
Awww shsucks, Wilbur, you've gotta come home from that big old city right now!"


I guess she misses me. I miss her too. My Aunt Mabel makes the best chocolate banana strawberry waffles with whipped cream and cherries on top.

Aunt "M" taught me that a good breakfast was the most important meal of the day. She also used to say that having breakfast for lunch and dinner was even better!

Guess there's no place like home, is there?
