I think this is the last but..........maybe not

 I must tell you what we had to eat for breakfast @ 932 Penniman. Saturday morning we began with a parfait glass, layered with greek yogurt, granola and fruit. That was followed by French toast made with croissants! The syrup was made by Carey ~ apple cider, spices, sugar and thickened with a bit of cornstarch. (By the way, Jon was the chef). Sunday's breakfast, pictured above started out with a poached pear with a dollop of greek yogurt. Next came a spinach cheese quiche and slices of tomato with grilled grated cheese on top. As you can see the serving dish ware was all very lovely. Need you ask why there is a candle in my quiche????


 E-mails I received - from Karla..............
 ......from Susi??.......
 .......from Susi.........
......and from Bill. I think there are 80 explanation marks on this one.

I went to the Google and looked for information about May 27, 1932. This is what I found.
We were in a depression. FDR was the president. Corn flakes cost 25c for three boxes. A new house cost $6500.00 and a car was $610.00. Gas was 10c a gallon. Hamburg cost 10c a pound and a loaf of bread, 7c. 10#s of potatoes cost 18c, oranges 14 for 25c and bananas cost 19c for 4 #s. Unfortunately, I didn't look for the middle class yearly income.
People born on May 27th: Henry Kissinger, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Dasheill Hammett, Julia Ward Howe, Rachel Carson and Wayne Williams, who murdered 29 children in Atlanta, GA. ~ the famous and the infamous.
