Big Words......

I found this recipe file box in the bottom of the pantry along with the lunch box the other day and couldn't believe what I found when I opened it.

These 3 1/2 X 5 cards were still filed in this little box in alphabetical order just the way Michael had left them back in 1990. They were still packed like sardines. I was shocked to see that the cards were still white and hadn't yellowed one bit and that I could actually read his handwriting better back then than I could now ! Sorry kiddo!!! Finding things like this in the pantry make this entire remodel project completely worth it. Treasures like these are PRICELESS!!!!

Mother Hubbards Cupboard.....

We are in the process of a major remodel in our kitchen and after 22 years it is amazing the things you find hiding in your cabinets. We removed our pantry and way back in the back was this little lunch box. NO I did not get rid of it but I just wanted to put the memory down on paper.

This was Michael's lunch box when he was in the first grade at Grace Abbott. Seems like only yesterday. Aahhhhhhhh...wait till I finish the layout on what else I found in those cupboards! Stay tuned!!!
