Blog of Note

Wow, today has become an even bigger and more exciting day, if that's even possible.

I've been deemed a Blog of Note by the mothership, that is to say, blogger. The blogger, as in blogger.com. Blogger with a capital B. I am just really so shocked and touched that people other than my mom read my blog. Words just aren't enough.

If you're new to An Apple a Day and visiting from either blog of note or d*s...

Hi! Welcome! Can we be friends? I'll buy you an ice cream cone and we can roam the streets together. Pretty please?

Let's get to know each other a little better. For starters, i'm obsessed with old doodads. This amazing old seed catalogue envelope is from the attic of Elmwood, my family's house in New Hampshire.

Inside my great great grandmother seems to have stashed all of her correspondence. One rainy day I'll go through them and spill the juicy details!

Just for fun, here's a photo I found mixed in with her papers. Arthur Webster, a great great great uncle, I think. If only the penny farthing bicycle was still in the attic, that would come home to brooklyn in a heartbeat!
