BLACK AND WHITE WEDNESDAY #120 - THE WEE COOK

Me (many years ago)
- Me And My Cute Apron -

This picture was taken by my late grandfather (Roy Robinson aka Pop) in 1982 or 1983 and was submitted to "Black & White Wednesday", an event created by Susan at "The Well-Seasoned Cook" and which is graciously hosted by her this week (click here in order to see who is hosting the next roundup).

    1. Merci! Et bien le blond a été remplacé par de l'auburn et les cheveux droits ont disparus au profit de cheveux ondulés/frisés (sans que je n'y sois pour rien)... ;-)
