( Tuesday NO PO) National Be an Angel Day, Pecan Torte Day & Tooth Fairy Day

Post by Z is for Zangie » Tue Aug 22, 2023 2:14 am

The point of being an Angel Day is just to ask people to be kind. I try to do that anyway, and my name does mean Angel...lol...my Mom< every once in a while when she likes me calls me that...lol...I like Angels, I have a lot of crafted Christmas ones...And a killer Angel Tree Topper, but, it stopped working and I no longer have anyway who tinkers with that stuff to fix it...lol...

Another what looks like a yummy Pecan thing, I just found out the difference between cake and tortes ( the tortes have more ingredients and are more like pies, but, are dense and don't rise like a cake does...

I love the imaginary kid's beings, like Tooth Fairies...Think they are cool

My Grandmother collected angels. All sorts, but mostly Christmas style ceramic angels. It became a tradition for me to give her an angel for Christmas. When she died, my Mom got a lot of her angels and my Aunt got a bunch more. Over the years I changed my angel gifts to my Mom. She gave a bunch away to her grandkids (who didn't really appreciate them) but she has a few left. For a number of years I gave her a Goebel crystal angel, and she's got nearly the complete set. They're on a corner shelf in her room these days. I'm sure I'll end up with them some day.

This is probably my favorite, but she's got close to a dozen different ones.
