From Anna's Diary

Wednesday, November 25, 1981
"I made 5 pumpkin pies, 2 gooseberry and raspberry mixed and a mince meat with dried apples and cherries and a little one for us to try. We went to deliver the pies to Ludie Cooper and Peggy Sorensen. Went back to Legier’s for celery and eggs. Fred went with us again. We also got Dad’s vitamins. We have been to Roosevelt every day this week. Darrell called to ask about the wagon cover."

"It is overcast, looks (like a) dreary Thanksgiving. I was up at 5:30 a.m. Prepared the turkey and got it in the oven at 6:30 a.m. Fixed the dressing, washed the potatoes and yams. Dinner was almost ready at 12:00. Oh, I dug the big table out of the little house. Had to move some of Clyde’s wheat to get it. Dad said I should have called him. At one o clock the Darrells were here. The turkey wasn’t done but by (the time) everything else was ready and Darrell took the turkey out, the little red thing popped out. We all enjoyed ourselves."

  1. Quite a project. I really like your present arrangement. It is very good and from experience your pies are great too. Dad
