Aunt Dorothy Crocheting

Aunt Dorothy was an interesting old character. She made a point of letting you know she was no prim-and-proper little old lady. The stories she told were seldom about sweet little grand-kids or memories normally cherished by your typical grandma. Aunt Dorothy loved to shock! She could quickly tell an off-color joke with the best of them. She took special delight in opening her dining room drawer and show-off her collection of 'naughty' gags and toys in the same way that most people display family heirlooms and valued treasures. She wanted you to know she was a "tough old broad".

Oh yeah, did I mention she could crochet
