    1. I didn't realize you haven't seen Marion before, Lena. She is rather camera shy, like me, but I surprised her in the first picture and in the second she actually posed, lol...

  7. Lovely post! I need to show it to my children. Very interesting Louise.
    Marion looks fab at the age of 93! She has an amazing skin! And I bet she never used any special creams through her life!

    1. This book is so adorable, Alida. I just had to share it:) I hope your children like it too:)

      I think Marion has wonderful skin too. It looks just as amazing in real life:) As far as I know, she has never used special creams. She does however, drink lots and lots of water and the only moisturizer she uses is Vaseline on her face! (uh oh, I may be giving away her secrets:)

  8. Dear Louise,
    Love the pictures of the retro childrens party cookbook! Such a simpler time that was. That book must have really fun, foods, and games to play. You have a gem there. I have never seen Marion before, but you can't tell me she is 93! OH MY Goodness, bless her for sure. She looks so young. That must be because she is living with you...Thanks for sharing, and tell marion it was nice to meet her. Blessings, Dottie :)

    1. I love children's cookbooks, Dottie. They are so difficult to find these days though:) Marion sure does look terrific for her age. She has such a positive attitude. I think that's what keeps her looking so young:)

  22. 93?! Marion doesn't look it! And she has such great skin! I should start using vaseline on my face so I can look that good when I'm 93... if I ever live that long. Have a great weekend Louise!
