@sarvi your Persian New Year in the park experience reminded me of one of my favorite Carl Sandburg poems from 1916.

And I went to famous executives who boss the work of thousands of men.
They all shook their heads and gave me a smile as though I was…

Maybe if you can’t find help here, you could ask on their photo? Though I am sure some lovely lady will chime in and help:)

We always go to the Easter egg hunt at the local park on Saturday, the kids get soooo much candy. Last year they got (not kidding) a 5 gallon bucket full of taffy. They think it is the greatest. We gave half to Grandma for treats at her house and the rest lasted us nearly until Halloween.
