Mrs. Teresa Runion taught
school for several years but
retired recently when her
youngest child, Matthew, was
born She has 4 very active
children that keep her on the
go, and doesn’t want to have to
spend too much time in the kit-
chen. so she has a favorite
cook-book that has some
wonderful ‘do-ahead' recipes
in it that she uses often. This
allows her more quality time
with her family, and is pro-
bably what more women are
looking for today.
Mrs. Runion enjoys working
with her oldest daughter
Melissa, in a 4-H project
where she teaches them to sew,
and later this year they will
participate in a contest with
other 4-H members.
Mrs. Runion’s husband,
John, is the local dentist of
Emory, and also enjoys farm-
ing (on the side). His grand-
father was a farmer in Illinois,
and it’s always been a dream of
Dr. Runion's to farm. They
have a beautiful 62 acre farm
where he's able to raise stock
cows, and of course, their 4
growing children!
The Runion s attend the
Emory Baptist Church where
she is the Children's Division
Co-ordinator, and also teaches
children’s choir.
Mrs. Runion loves to cook,
and had some delicious cin-
namon rolls made when I arriv-
ed - I’m sure you’ll want to try
them. She’s also contributed a
recipe for Breakfast Bars that
her daughter enjoys making for
; 4-H, and some other great
recipes you'll want to try!

Leader for
Anniversary
Mr. & Mrs. C. A. Eckenfels
have renewed the Rains County'
Leader subscription for their
daughter and son-in-law for
their anniversary. They said,
“Happy Anniversary, Norman
& Teresa Cason. We love
you!”
Sunday evening. 1-15-89, it
was so cold this morning, and
cloudy. This evening the sun is
shining so pretty. We had the
nicest day.
Fayne came in Friday even-
ing. He came and ate lunch
with us Saturday and visited a
long time He was our first
visitor today. Royce came by
and saw all was okay, and went
on his way, then Josh and
Mcrlene of Edgewood came
over. We were talking up a
storm and Mrs. Exa Northcutt
of Grand Saline came to visit
us. After lunch, we just sat and
talked. Raymon. Josh, and Exa
seemed to enjoy themselves
also. Exa has had both eyes
operated on. She went for a
check up recently and she has
20-20 vision. I'm really glad of
that. Josh is getting his fields
ready for spring planting.
I was in the grocery store
recently. I met one of my
friends from several years
back, Modena Lane. We work-
ed together when we grew cot-
ton. She made me feel like a
queen for a day When we quit
and went our different ways
gathering up our groceries she
said,“I Love You ” I’m
always saying I love you, but
when Modena said it. it made
me feel 10 feet tall. To my way
of thinking. I love you is so
seldom said, anyway, I love
you too. Modena. I guess as of
right now I love all of you. Ha.
I know that makes you all very
glad.
Raymon is out feeding and
it’s so quiet here, and cold.
Royce was over Edd
Johnson’s way yesterday. Edd
has his potato ground all ready
for the fertilizer, but can’t find
any fertilizer anywhere right
now. He plans to plant 17
sacks. I guess with the modern
tools he has there’s not much to
it, but picking them up by
hand. 17 sacks would be a lot.
Josh and Merlene went to a
get-together at the Community
Center on New Years for
Senior folks. They said they
saw Mat Wade. We are always
going to visit him and never
do. Two more ladies I would
love to see are Willie Bullard
and Dolly Porter
I got a pretty Christmas card
from Fern Porter ?. She said
her Mom. Dolly was doing
OK, and so was Della Dorn
Garner. I love her so much.
She’s one more lady although I
still don't think she should
have made me and Loyd Giles
stand on her desk and chew ‘O
Boy’ gum, do you Loyd?
Looking out this north win-
dow, there’s so much frost. It
makes me have chills just look-
ing out.
We lost Edd Johnson one
night last week. He had visited
with Mr. and Mrs. Willie Mc-
Queen that evening and they
got him to eat supper with
them. The big and little of it is
wher he started home it was
dark. He made it to
Hogansville, near Edd’s
house, but he turned too quick
to go home and got out in a
field and got stuck. No big
deal, he went out to the store
and two men took a pickup and
pulled Edd out.
One of the men drove Edd's
pickup and the other guy went
and brought the guy back. I
don’t think Edd will try driving
anymore at night. It seems it
has gotten that way with us, no
driver, no go if it’s dark.
While I was hunting Edd, I
called a phone number and it
was Mattie Ivie. She’s one
more lady. We had a nice visit,
but no Edd. Mattie said she
was still teaching when she
was needed. When Diane
started to school I think ’.he
whole class was the baby of the
family. Somehow, someway.
Mattie got them through their
first year. The first year that
Mattie taught, if I’m not
mistaken, was the year
Raymon and I were married.
Nov. 30, 1938. I was so wise.
No more school for me. but I
learned a whole lot tight quick
that school books don't teach.
I hear a tractor, will talk
again soon, The men and I
have eaten lunch and they are
gone again.
I started to the drug store
and to pick up some groceries
when Edd came up and he
stayed with me until about 4
pm. When Royce and R.F got
home, I went on. Royce went
home and Raymon and Edd
visited until I got back. He
helped Raymon get the
groceries inside and then went
home. I know he isn’t lost
more than anyone else, but it’s
sad for all.
I saw Mary Ann Burns to-
day. She’s babysitting with a
little grandaughter. and doesn't
have too many minutes to
waste. Wait until she decides
to cook, then she will need an
apron real bad. Two of our
grandsons helped Jeanette
cook. You can’t imagine what
pretty doughnuts they made,
chocolate coating and all.
It’s cloudy today. I just talk-
ed to Joy and it’s raining down
there. She has a hickory tree in
her yard that has dropped a
bunch of hickory nuts that she
has to get rid of before mowing
time, that was supposed to hap-
pen today.
I’ll say bye for today, but
first, while in the grocery store
yesterday, I saw Uncle Claud
McCravey. I got to visit with
him awhile, I love Uncle Claud
and Aunt Bettie just a whole
lot.
We will all visit again
through the Rains County
Leader next week Azrue, I
miss your writing so much.
