Aunt Jen * swears it’s true

========================

Great Aunt Jenny had wine at suppertime
“for medicinal purposes only” she’d say
each night when she visited with us. She
lived to a ripe old age, lived to over 100.
Thanks to Bjorn and John Belchamber for
the inspiration when the brain had a sprain
tonight.
