Aunt Edith made the best "old fashioned" desserts. Pizzelles dusted with powdered sugar, Lemon Merengue Pie, delicious Cream Puffs, etc.
And whenever we had a family cookout, I would always look forward to her macaroni salad. She made it with tuna fish. yum!
She was so precious. A sweet little lady indeed.
For the past several years, whenever we got together, she would give me or my mom an envelope with a handful of old pictures in it that we had never seen before....
