I found out the 'unknown ...Thanks Christina!! <br /><br />I found out the 'unknown woman' is indeed a part of the family.. I should have checked with Mum before I posted ;) <br /><br />She is actually my great-great Aunty Grace, - Bessie Pearl's sister - you were right! It makes me happy to find out that BP had a sister. My sister and I always talk about 'when we are old in our rocking chairs' - we use it as a reminder that we should have fun. So that when we get to those rocking chairs we'll have lots to laugh about and remember. Looks like Aunty Grace and BP were pretty good mates... nice!<br /><br />So glad you are enjoying the blog.. yay!<br /><br />xx nNerissa Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15711709398384986884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3548681120256312661.post-4105908323286154542012-03-20T20:53:24.558-04:002012-03-20T20:53:24.558-04:00Thanks for sharing! Love it! You're not just...Thanks for sharing! Love it! You're not just honoring the past, but bringing it all into our immediate experience with the recipes and stories from your perspective. I don't have to make the pikelets to know that they are delicious! <br /><br />That woman looks like she has to be part of the family. She resembles Bessie Pearl so much, and even more so, your grandma. Those gorgeous cheekbones and overall bone structure have to be related. An Aunt? Someone you always thought was "outside" the family, but really part of it? I'm getting carried away, but she definitely looks related. <br /><br />Love,<br />ChristinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
