Cute little Toofer is going to be very happy in her new home, I know. Sounds like you've made a good connection in Effie! (I've always loved the name of that town. Maybe 'cause a name in my family that has been handed down for generations is Euphemia and "Effie" has been used as a nickname. :o])
Mama Pea,
Sure is a nice ride up there. No blueberries up there this year, though. Think they froze out.
Euphemia? I've never heard that name. Effie would be a cute nickname.
Well, bummer. Sorry to hear you didn't get any blueberries. I know a lot of the northern part of the state did have a killing frost this spring that took care of fruit tree blossoms and berry blossoms. We were lucky enough to escape it.
Euphemia may be Scottish, but I'm not sure. It did come from my Scotch grandma's side of the family. Supposedly, the first girl child of each generation was to be named Euphemia. That was me when I was born but my mom (thank you, Mom!) refused to saddle me with the name. Some of my relatives that did get the name were nicknamed Effie, as I said, and one was nicknamed Fayme. I've never understood exactly where they got either nickname from Euphemia!
