I love Doug's.<br /><br />Wanted you to know that from your post last week...I have a vintage cracker jar that has been empty and waiting for me to decide what to use to fill it.

It's a well loved, but well cared for piece of furniture if even the intersections are still intact. I used to help my grandmother wash clothes and wring them. That was quite a contraption but I was always thrilled to be able to use it since no one but my relatives in Nebraska had anything like this.Kristin - The Goathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08856336718919208752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259236583324720329.post-60305201304003004612009-07-08T22:34:25.904-05:002009-07-08T22:34:25.904-05:00Dad is an oldie but a goodie.
