mingled during the last hot day of August.
The smell of the new mown hay and the
cricket chirps tell us of August.
Just around the corner are thoughts of
school wardrobes and plans for the last outing

Do other women have as /much trouble
surprising their husbands as I do, when 1 bake
a pie or cake? It seems he is in and out of the
house for a drink or to hunt up some records
just as I put something in the oven or take it
out.
Today, I actually got two blueberry pies
-baked and set to cool. But did I surprise him?
No! You see, the juice overflowed and
burned in the oven, so he smelled them be
fore suppertime

front porch.
The other night we lost a lot
of sleeji trying to help a man get
