My i re onn a road tp ee h--ve been
sharing many memories both good and bad. We have stopped by
some relatives and have shared memories with them. I hope you are
sharing your memories also.
Please share your 52 Weeks. of Personal Genealogy.
German names part 2
Patronymic & Matronymic Surnames - Based on a parent's first
name, this category of surnames isn't as common in Germany as
in many other European countries. Patronymic surnames are found
primarily in the Northwestern areas of Germany, although they may
be encountered in other areas of Germany. (Niklas Albrecht - Niklas
son of Albrecht).

52 Weeks of Personal Genealogy
(Each week I will be giving you a prompt that will invite you to record
memories and insights about your own life for future descendants (52
weeks of Personal Genealogy). Write down your memories on your
computer, in your journal or start a new journal.)
Week 34: Smells. Describe any smells that take you back to
childhood. These could be from meals, fragrant gardens, musty
basements, or something entirely different.
Last Week - Week 33: Nicknames. What was your childhood
nickname, andwhat was the meaning behind it? You can also discuss
the nicknames of other family members, both past and present.

The First Fruit Of My Labor
Yes! The first tomato. Well, not the first, but the first genuine tomato
sized tomato. We hasten to say that we don't want to disrespect
cherry tomatoes, sweet and lovely in the warm sun, ready to eat by
the handful, but cherry tomatoes are, shall we say, size challenged.
(Can't be politically incorrect and say "small". It might hurt the
tomatoes' feelings and, more likely, some tomato-twerp lawyer would
enter a lawsuit against the Julian News and...but we digress.)
Anyway, having nodded to political correctness to show that we
are With It, we'll celebrate in anticipation of what we hope will be an
onslaught of regularly sized tomatoes, the kind that can be sliced
for sandwiches, peeled for cooking (cherry tomatoes being peeling-
challenged as well as size-challenged) and otherwise used as regular
tomatoes are used.
AI of this is in the future as the celebrated First Tomato is
considerably ahead of its feffow large tomatoes. Green tomatoes...
there are some recipes that might work but they are still to be
discovered. Fried green tomatoes sound good, Southern-ly delicious,
suitably down home, but in fact tend to be acidy and hard on those
taste buds along the side of the tongue and if there is a cornmeal
crust on fried whatever that tastes good it is yet to be discovered.
Green tomato mincemeat is another way to use green tomatoes but
only once or twice a decade. Mincemeat, green tomato or otherwise,
doesn't disappear easily in this household.
So it's wait and look and put the old head into the tomato squash
jungle to catch another gleam of red. Down the road await several
kinds of tomato sauces, Persecute the Kid Tomato Chutney for which
The Kid will probably need to be imported because it's too much work
for The Mom, and many other lovely tomato dishes.
Assuming, of course, that enough tomatoes get ripe before it
freezes. Up here with our late seasons it's an annual hazard. Possibly,
though, the fall will be late along with all our other odd weather and
we'll eat our tomatoes, God willing, into November. Hail the tomato!

Collections All Your Tree Servnce Needs
I don't know why I've begun to collect things. I collect groups of
things like most collectors, I guess. However, it seems to me that the
people I know who collect things do it in some sort of order.
My sister collects Western Art. She also collects photos and other
items that are associated with Half Dome in Yosemite. Our family has
visited Yosemite for generations and a few weeks ago, my brother
who is a minister, gave a sermon in The Chapel of the Valley in
Yosemite Valley. I guess he is collecting memories.
My brother and his wife collect lodge d6cor. They have a great
collection of Canadian Mountie posters. They also have a collection
of Big Sky brand Bear Foot Bear Christmas decorations.
I know women who collect kitchen items and I know men who
collect items connected to their favorite sport or vehicle. My husband
Mike has a collection of baseball umpire memorabilia because he
was a professional high school baseball umpire for over 25 years.
A few years ago I began changing the {heme of my shop, Julian
Yesteryears. When we bought the shop in early 2005, the main
theme seemed to'be of the 1950s and 1960s. I lived those years and
had no plans to do it again. I enlarged some of the assortments of
merchandise and gradually let others go away. I bought out some local
stores when they sold or when the owners retired and the additions
of each type of merchandise slightly changed the theme of my store.
When the recession hit a few years back, some of the wholesale
companies I bought from discontinued the items that were popular
sellers for me, or the companies went out of business. I needed to
come up with a new strategy, so I began making items to sell I began
buying homemade items from a few close friends who make their
own items to sell at craft shows and I began buying Not New things at
auctions and at estate sales.
As I bought from the sales, I began keeping some for myself. An
item here and there didn't seem like much until I tried to find room for
more items.
I inherited an Indiana Glass Co. Pretzel Pattern clear round dish
from my grandmother. It isn't an expensive piece. However, I really
like it. Along with buying things to sell in my store, I have found and
bought another round dish, 4 celery trays and a sugar and creamer
set. Until I bought them, I never knew I could ever find a sugar and
creamer set, or anything else from that same dish pattern. This is all

Arts And Crafts Can Help
Children Learn Important Skills
('4APS)--Whether it is with finger paint, chalk, crayons or
'construction paper, children love crafting and creating their own
special works of art. Not only are crafts an enjoyable activity for
children, simple crafting can also help children learn important skills
that affect their overall development and is a way through which
parents can observe their children's developmental progress to make
sure they are school ready. It's important for parents to be in tune with
their child's development during their early years because the first
five years of life lay the foundation for a child's long-term success.
That's why Easter Seals, the nation's largest nonprofit provider
of early intervention services, and A.C. Moore, a specialty arts and
crafts company, have teamed up for their annual Crafting A Better
World For All Kids campaign from now through September 15th at the

is wearing a back pack, a baby jaguar, a pink bunny wearing bunny
slippers and a black cat wearing jack-o-lantern slippers. These are
just the stuffed animals that sit on my computer monitor and on the
shelves above my computer. They are all close to Beany Baby size.
On other shelves I began collecting stuffed bears that look like they
need a home. None of them looks cute in the popular sense and I
couldn't stand the idea of giving them to anyone who wouldn't love
them dearly. My bears are in many sizes and now they have friends.
To my collection I have added a chocolate colored bunny with floppy
ears, an armadillo wearing a Santa hat, a stuffed dragon that has a
silly look on his face and I have othe[ stuffed animals that are tucked
here and there around my house.
And I have begun other collections.
I have a plate that was my mother's. It is blue on white with a
California poppy design. When I was a child, mom kept this plate on a
shelf in our breakfast room. Recently son Thomas found 5 or six more
blue and white plates. He gave them to me because he knows I like
the color combination. I have kept them because they were a gift from
my son and I do like them. Until this week I wasn't sure what I would
do with them because a few plates aren'tenough to serve a meal, so I
just looked at them. Today I made a decision to hang them all. I found
my collection of plate hangers and the plates will hang nicely among
my collection of mirrors.
When Mike and I bought Julian Yesteryears we called it
Progressively Old Fashioned because we wanted to move the look
of it from the 1950s and 1960s to the 1920s through the 1940s.
Once we settled into the decades we liked best, we called the store
Uniquely Old Fashioned. We maintained the old fashioned look and
brought in products that showed off our theme. However, we noticed
a few local retailers copying some of the products we sell, so one
reason I changed my store theme again, was to remain unique in
an economy where buying from wholesale companies became more
and more difficult. Now that I am making many of our products in my
home, and I am buying home made products along with many that
are Not New, I add all of those to the hand dipped candles that are
made in Massachusetts, the scented candles that are made in Idaho
and the soaps and lotions that are made just 5 miles from Julian. I
have store collections now. I keep and sell individuallya collection of
storage jars, a collection of Japanese looking pieces, new and used
cook books, heart themed glass and porcelain items and I have other
groups and collections of things that I like a lot. I'm not sure how I
began most of my collections, however every new piece that I find is
a big part of a fun adventure.
These are my thoughts.
