Pages from my great grand mothers scrapbook reveal the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree – where she wrote in the pages of a now yellowing scrapbook, the first entry from 1893, I now post here on this blog.
Here is one of my favorites so far:
To keep the lip
From many a slip,
Five things observe with care
Of whom you speak,
to whom you speak,
and how, and when, and where.
