Our great-grandmother was an amazing woman. And here, one hundred years later, we have her diary.
Take a trip to the past through the eyes of a teen-age girl, and marvel at how the world has changed -
and the many ways it has not.

April 12, 1913 - Saturday


12 - Went to Mae's before breakfast and rooted Bonnie and Mae out of bed. We all went up & called on Mrs. Pit but did not stay, as she had a pupil. Went to the Empire in the afternoon and made almond toffee at night. I got the toffee recipe mixed with another and so we put candied pineapple in it, too; but it was an improvement. We had a grand old spree! Meeting adjourned at a quarter of ten. Bonnie is packs of fin. Awfully attractive too, tough not exactly pretty. I can see how Don fell head over heels in love with her. Oh dear, I wish I knew how she did it.
