Dear Shelby
Thanks for the beautiful card & Ruth says (and I quote) "She is a real sweetheart." She was thrilled to get your card & I might say, some of her own grandchildren didn't send her one.
It is bitter cold outside. The wind chill factor makes it worse.
We had 5 1/2" of snow Sunday & then it sleeted on top of that. Ruth cleaned my car off ... she always does.
Did your mom tell you I made some candy & sent it to you both. I mailed it to her because there is someone there during the day. Next time you go over, you can get it. I sent it UPS.
Mrs. Wallace is having her eye operation on Friday.
I'm glad you enjoyed the Maymont Flower & Garden Show. I went to Philly to the flower show one year & was it packed. It was beautiful though. The next year I went to New York to the Citicorp Building for their show. That was really something to see.
No, I didn't see "Dances With Wolves". They had "Sister Act" upstairs a couple weeks ago. It was great. On Friday, they are having Victor Borge in his comedy & piano video. I think I would like to see it. He is so good.
I bought a pint of Irish coffee cream in the grocery department at Giant. They also had amaretto. It is so good in your coffee. You use it like cream. It is in the milk section.
I have on the shirt you sent me & it sure looks & feels good. It is so cold out & my apartment just doesn't get as warm as it should be.
Well hon, I better close & you take care & write when you can.
Love always,
Grandma
