That peanut brings back a LOT of memories! When I was seven, we had a dog named Dusty. He adored circus peanuts. The local brand was Goobers! Dusty loved Goobers! so much, Tina Nordweg, our babysitter, called him Goober Dog. He eventually became Goobs. Now, I am thinking of him. Thank you, Maggie!
Nice to see you're back.

God bless you Maggie. I lost my mom a few years ago and there are definitely things that remind me of her around the house. I often make chicken fried steak simply because she used to make it almost every week. Well, sometimes it feels like we were made to remember. We live life, but as the years go by more and more of life feels like it's in the past.
I don't know you Maggie, but God bless you. God bless you a whole bunch!
