My Grandma made this crab meat dip for every family holiday dinner. Each one of my kids as well as my dad, my brother and even me have made ourselves sick eating too much of it. Last year after my mom died my brother couldn‘t find the recipe. I had it as written on the green paper by one of my sons several years ago. I translated it to the white paper for family sharing. #LitsyLoveBingo

so-soFrom the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg was published in 1967. This is a story that follows two young children who are siblings who run away from home in an attempt to make their absence noticeable to their parents. The children go to the Metropolitan Art Museum and from there meet many interesting characters and interesting circumstances.
