Came across this negative from the 70's with my mother in the parsonage kitchen on Noble Avenue. I had forgotten the layout of the kitchen, and now it returns to me via the photograph. We lived in the white wood house from 1967 to 1977 in Williston, Florida. The house was moved after we left for Lake City and taken out of town toward Ocala on US27 where I assume it is today.
The lot remains vacant where the house once stood across from the basketball courts of the Elementary school where my mother taught. From her room, she could see the house.
I recently took all her cookbooks I had taken to the shed and bought them back into the house to go through. When my mother is here this week-end with us, I hope she will go through them with me and be able to pick out some of her favorites.
She must of had many, for even in the various books from churches we had attended and from schools and various fund raisers, the pages are worn and in places she has added a cup more of sugar here or flower there, making modifications. Then there are the extra clippings stuck between the pages cut from papers and magazines.
I was glad to have found her recipe for White Chocolate Cake in the 1982 Delta Kappa Gamma cookbook.

nice memories.
