In the Pink: Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours
In my early years, Thanksgiving was a family day, surrounded by my dad’s family, aunts, uncles, and cousins from near and far. We jammed into Grandma’s house up the hill from where I lived, and celebrated by eating, visiting and enjoying each other’s company.

In the Pink: It's great to be back in Osakis

In the Pink: Honor grandparents
Every day was Grandparents Day when I was a kid. My family lived exactly a half block down Pollock Hill from Grandma and Grandpa Malcheski. We saw them every day, sometimes several times a day. I became the person I am today because of my close association with my Grandma. (I was her favorite, of course. The rest of the grandkids in town were boys, four of them, to be exact.)
