Did anyone's family use angel hair to decorate for Christmas? My grandma used it in the 1960s. I remember being told as a child not to touch it because it was made of spun glass and could cut. That may have been an exaggeration on the part of the adults in the household πŸ€ͺ

What is your favorite decade to read, write, or chat about for those who are interested in twentieth century American history? For me it is 1917 through the 1920s, when a beloved Grandmother came of age. Also, the late 1960s through the 1970s, the era of my adolescence.

Just discovered author Katherine Center this week when I checked out one of her older books, "The Lost Husband." Will be reading many more of her stories and recommending her to friends who love to read.

Thank you, Heather. Today was my first day on Bluesky and I wondered why and how there was personal info associated with lots of people when I clicked on their names, that must be what it is. I'll need to go back and take another look at that.

Oh no, I am new to social media of all types except FB and don't know what a byline is or how to create one!
