Paul, I¡¯m not sure, but sounds right. Yes, Katie and family - Tippi and Joanie and father - moved into the brick house across from us (second one from Mulberry St. going south). Also Mr. Capra (known as the ¡°goat¡± because ¡°capra" is the name for goat in Italian) moved in with them later. Lonie is missed in so many ways. She would know. Sorry about Tippi. Didn¡¯t she have a bad marriage with an abusive husband?

Boy, does that ever bring back memories! I used to get so excited about getting new Easter outfits. I forgot about our Palm Sunday attire, but that rings a bell too. The Kennett Kandy Kitchen Easter chocolates I could never forget about. Sally and I still talk about them. Once in a while we find some good candy that reminds us of the Kandy Kitchen taste. So delicious!
I¡¯ve been putting off a trip to the grocery store with mask and gloves and wipes. I¡¯ve been doing most of the recommended clean up but will beef up my efforts. Tomorrow is the day for my shopping trip. It won¡¯t be 7:00 am for me but a lot earlier than usual.
Thanks, Elaine. Happy Easter and love to all from me too.

Ciao, mia famiglia.
No Palms on my door as in days of yore. Today and Easter Sunday next week bring back many wonderful memories. You wore last Easter¡¯s hat and clothes to church on Palm Sunday and on Easter Sunday all new bonnets, spring coats, and new shoes. In the dining room was a huge Kennett Kandy Kitchen, milk chocolate egg stuffed with their finest candy. Sunday dinner was ham, I guess, but Angie's homemade pasta was always the biggest hit. Family came to visit and talk - no phones to look at and at one point in my life, no phone at all.
In contrast, today I went to a supermarket at 7 a..m., wearing a mask, sunglasses, and latex gloves. So covered up, I couldn¡¯t read my list. Then after coming home, spent the next hour disinfecting what I bought. Filled a sudsy sink with apples, oranges and lemons; even carrots! Wiped off with Clorox/water everything else I bought, touched in the car and outside the car, door knobs, etc. Dr. Fauci, the country¡¯s primary doctor, says it works and do it. So I am and I¡¯m sure you are too.
I hope you¡¯re all healthy and hap
py even wearing masks, bandanas bandito-style, and latex gloves with Clorox wipes and Purell handy. Maybe you even have enough TP shelved for the next week or so.
Love to all, Elaine
