{Sick}

Today I had a horrible allergic reaction to some peanuts. 
Whole peanuts.
Peanut butter doesn't bother me.
Strange.

{Sepia}

My great-grandfather Albert Puffenberger, on the far right in the middle row, circa 1917.
I met him a few years before he passed away, in a nursing home.
I recall him being a kind and pleasant man.
I was in grade school at the time.. we birdwatched.
