Well this is an interesting way of rating kitchen work. No point in making it more difficult when you have the technology.

Though honestly, we’ve all just been roughing it.

From Idaho to New York in 4 years. What a journey it’s been for this receipt turned bookmark.

It’s true, books do take you places.

These are the cutest and the sweetest. Some kid drew and doodled on his notebook just so he could give something to his mother.

When was the last time you did the same?

St. Therese is one of the Catholic church’s most beloved saints. She does have a society and members do their part in praying for others and making donations.

But it looks like Mary may have been sinning when it came to her reading material!

This was probably the uncensored, adult-oriented edition of “The Sound Of Music.”

Brilliant composition, albeit dirty, but you have to give props for creativity.

Well someone was in love!

It is pretty much how kids go about professing their feelings for someone. It’s cute, innocent, and romantic.

Well unicorns are supposedly magical creatures, so maybe this one had a few tricks up its horn.

Now that’s surprising. Whoever it was had taste. Or received a special gift from a special someone.

It’s not every day someone stumbles upon a piece of history. Especially in iconic teenage novels.

It is a place of legend and myth.

Lovely. Just a straightforward, no-nonsense note of how and why a person is appreciated. We should all do this more often.

Who were they? What stories would they have told? This is the best part about books. So many surprises in store.

How fitting that this was found in that book. This would have sent a shiver down anyone’s spine. Seemed like ages ago and yet it really did happen.

Now this just has mystical written all over it. Whoever left it had really good taste too. And that 4-leaf clover is definitely for keeps.

Seems legit for its time. A time when men had to prove they were men. It’s harmless so… wouldn’t hurt to try.

Curiously fell out of a book with the same theme. So the last person to read the book really did have an affinity for anything to do with the war.

That’s some haul for an old algebra book.

We hope they didn’t forget to turn in that homework.

Nearly 100 years ago. Let that sink in for a moment.

We wonder what “citizenship” class was all about.

What a sweet thought when you realize the couple probably read this book together. They must have had a few favorites too.

Looks like this bible was used a lot if it needed a bookmark.

We just think this is an odd one to choose for your religious reading.
