I agree with the others. I'm sure Clara would be happy to know that you are enjoying the books and sharing them with others. Prob even more happy that you cared enough to stalk her. I would have loved to hear you place a call to the paper on that one though. That conversation would have been priceless.

Oh dear now we are going to a whole new place. I think the only thing I have worth keeping is my Grandmothers antique doll, I supposed DS will sell it : ( I want my ashes sprinkled at Disney.

How cool that you found Clara! She was born the same year as my dad! I'm sure she would be happy to know that you have her cook books and that they will be treasured.. :)) Don't like thinking about the death stuff.. blah..

I also think Clara would be happy to know her cookbooks are in good hands now. I think my stuff would just be tossed since they are dollar store and garage/yard sale finds. I think I would have my diaries at least be kept in my will probably for my daughter more than my son. If there is a heaven I hope we have copies of the stuff we leave behind or else I would be missing my seasonal decor and knicks knacks...lol

Nobody has to worry about looking for the shoeboxes full of money when I go!! I told my daughter to take what she wants and donate the rest. She said she's more inclined to just have a bonfire lol

I have gone through the death of my father and some of his stuff has been around for years. You cannot take it with you and possibly others may not hold it as precious as you did. Still interesting to hear of Mrs Yamashita and you appreciate her cook books so all is not lost :))

@silverscreamgrl heh heh. Did I tell you I called her boyfriend's mobile phone after Tiffany (grandson's girlfriend) lost the baby, to ask him to have Jennifer call her son.This was 3 days after miscarriage. Aaron (grandson) had called his mother to let her know and left voice mail. She never called him back. When I talked to Tim (Jennifer's boyfriend) he didn't know. I suggested that perhaps Jen could also call her father. She called Aaron, but has not called Pat. Nothing for 5 months. Sad.

@yoyomax12 Yeah it is something that I am definitely going to have to start thinking about sooner than later. I really am going to start once I get home from ST to get rid of most of the recipe books that have sat, unlooked at. It is sad to say that most of the stuff I make now come from those little impulse buy books. Of course we have our standards that we always do, but new stuff comes from those and not the nice cookbooks that look nice and that's it.

@snarkdetriomphe Yeah, I am enjoying her stuffs. And I didn't think about the lending books to friends thing. I only lend to my sister. But she doesn't return LOL>>>> which is why I wouldn't lend to a friend, for fear of it not being returned. Yep, leave it to family hahaha
