Regarding the timepiece, I have an old barber dime (minted between 1892 and 1916) with those exact initials (in the exact same style) etched into it's face. Was very curious as to the owner might've been, and now I guess I know...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272697246393665504.post-34758475459622314672010-08-30T17:08:25.395-05:002010-08-30T17:08:25.395-05:00Thats a really nice watch.

Cool how Elly's initials are in the brooch. :)martiangirlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272697246393665504.post-29808922192047421102010-08-17T08:20:18.398-05:002010-08-17T08:20:18.398-05:00Looked up 'circumbendibus' on the web - it...Looked up 'circumbendibus' on the web - it means in a roundabout way. I can't see the whole paragraph but perhaps 'politely called by another name' is a substitution for "With a circumbendibus". An aid to understanding what the author is trying to say. I don't think it is exactly the same thing but just because it's pencilled in doesn't mean it has to be perfect.<br /><br /><br />Gold watch - lovely - I know you will appreciate it. Yes Mom has always had that effect on watches. Funny how it wants to be wound at the same time every day. Please keep us posted on how the watch responds to you.<br /><br />The military brooch is amazing - very odd that it has Elly's initials - maybe it cast a subliminal influence on you when you chose Elly's name. EEEPPP EEEEEPP EEEEEPP<br /><br />The "Black Fig Wine" - does that say 3 lbs of sugar? Maybe it's 14 lbs of raisins and part of the 4 is missing??? Although it says only 1 gallon of water... Well you make it and tell us how it turns out.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12375375898868227145noreply@blogger.com
