Alma on the veranda.  Although I don't know the circumstances
of this photo it does appear that perhaps she's wearing a new dress--
one she made herself and has posed with the appearance of reading a newspaper. 
 She's got a lovely shine on her boots.
On the back of the photo is simply written 1910.
 
 
Alma in the same dress standing in the garden.
Its' interesting to see the hoe hanging off the fence in the
background as well.

Why not try making homemade catsup/ketchup?
Good luck figuring out the spice measurements though!
