Hankies and Cookies

Herself speaks.

Tomorrow, we lay my father-in-law to rest. 

I have acquired, washed and ironed a dozen embroidered hankies to give to the ladies in attendance. Everything is hard enough, without having to rely on a crumpled Kleenex tissue to get through. 

And for afterward, I have made some homemade cookies, so that we can remember that life can still be sweet.
