Hearts n' Flowers

Without the flowers. Or the hearts for that matter.



My very first Valentines Day present from TY way back in 1970 was (are you sitting down) a folding grocery cart. He thought it would help because I didn't have a car and the grocery was about 8 blocks away. What a thoughtful guy, especially since it made it easier to buy food to keep in the apartment for HIM. He made my toting and hauling easier, what a guy. Of course it also became the major decorative focal point of the apartment, a studio I could stand in the middle of and reach all the walls. It was, however, about 17 feet high.
Mine was more industrial looking, before industrial was chic.  And it squeaked.  Ladies, tell your sons that a grocery cart is NOT appropriate as a girlfriend present under any circumstances, even if she says she needs one.
