Social Butterfly
When they finally sold the house in Perkinsfield and moved into Midland, mom continued to be physically active. She also got involved with several community organizations including the Askennonia Seniors group and she also volunteered for the Cancer Society annual fundraisers. My mom had a passion for fashion and enjoyed participating in seasonal fashion shows put on by the Askennonia Senior Centre.
My mom always enjoyed entertaining family and friends, with a menu planned well in advance including new recipes, which would turn out successfully, most of the time. With a glass of wine with dinner, or two, to accompany the meal, but always in moderation! Not only did she cook and bake but she also made jams, pickled condiments and a variety of other yummy things to eat.
