Dorothy's Diary

Hello Blog Readers! (do I even have any? haha)

I know I was going to post a Q&E recipe today, but I've been obsessing over Dot's Diary! I was perusing blogs this morning and this link caught my eye and I've been reading it *all day*!

Dave, Dorothy's (Dot) son, received two of his mother's diaries from when she was a young girl (1945&46. Dot was 17&18, I believe). It is such a fascinating look into a slice of history. I love the language and the pictures that go along with the posts. It's just fabulous! It almost makes me want to start a diary. Somehow though, I don't think it would have quite the same punch as Dots. I can just imagine the entries:

December 11-Tuesday

Yelled at the kids
Made meatloaf
Went to bed at 11

Certainly not as glamorous as Dorothy's life!

I promise to post not one, but two (maybe even three!) Q&E Gifts from the Kitchen recipes tomorrow!
