    1. My gift of apple sauce
    2. Vee L. Housman
    3. Dear Folks, Just as I was finishing my dinner this evening a car drove up in my driveway and two people got out and knocked on my door. When I recognized them I made my way down to the door, unlocked it and welcomed both of them inside. They were the parents of my dear next door neighbor Ken and they were delivering my newspaper and my mail. Pattie and John stepped inside and handed over my mail, etc., but I also noticed that Pattie was carrying something else with her. She handed the plastic container to me and told me it was homemade apple sauce. I said, "Aw, you shouldn't have done that!" John's immediate response was to Pattie, "See, I told you she'd say something like that!" We had a nice warm conversation after that and when they left, I carried the apple sauce into my kitchen. Of course I had to taste test it and it was delicious, just the way I like it with a lot of cinnamon. But now I have a dilemma. I'm not all that fond of sweet things and I don't serve apple sauce as a side dish to my dinners. But don't worry, I'm certain that I'll nibble my way through the container of apple sauce and enjoy every spoonful. Nothin' like homemade apple sauce. :-) vee
