» Red - congratulations...
Mary, congratulations on the Honorable Mention. This is a terrific story. The other judges and I had a very hard time making our final decison. This is delightful and as Renie says, you were a very rich child. This story brought back memories of my childhood on the farm.-- posted by Red

Oh my, I keep thinking that was the best story yet, and then I come across another one. Now, this one - this was a really, really wonderful read, Mary!
I must say that the Internet ads at the end shattered the ambiance for me, but since I'm still glowing from the story it doesn't really matter. I don't want to look at those sites, but I am thinking about making our own butter this holiday morning. You took me home. Thank you!

In response to message posted by andreajo13:Hi Andrea, Yes, we have come a long way from way back then. After we did get electricity and I sat on my sister's lap listening to Fanny Brice as Baby Snooks on the radio and someone would have told me I'd be writing about those days on something called the Internet I would never have believed them.
Merry Christmas, Mary.

In response to message posted by RosemaryBasil:Hello Rose,
"Bohemian Balcony?" That name is enough to make me want to visit. I'll be there soon, between batches of cookie dough. Glad you liked my tale. Merry Christmas, Mary

In response to message posted by Red:Hi Red, Thank you so very much for this honor. I'm so glad you liked it. Yes, we were very rich, even a few years later when we really were poor we were still very rich. But, that's another story.
Merry Christmas, Mary

In response to message posted by SandyMcC:Hi Sandy, So glad you liked it. They say you can't go home again but, whom ever "They" are, they are wrong. Do make the butter. It does bring home back home. A few years ago, when I was raising goats, I made butter on Christmas morn, however, something went wrong because the butter was suppose to be whipped cream. I guess I gave the cream one too many whips. I checked out your page. It looks like a good place to take a break between baking cookies and burning fudge. I love reading Alaskan history. Have a good Christmas. Mary
