Starting in ancient times with Egyptian and Chinese societies, these two groups would use papyrus papers to write friendly letters or letters of good luck to those they cared about. Now let’s do the Time Warp to the early 1800’s, where Europeans would write social notes and deliver them to friends and family, now this is what started the beginning of another card, the greeting card. But let’s remain focused on what we’re here for, the history of these notes. Quite a while after the Europeans began using greeting cards, a man born in Prussian Silesia by the name of Louis Prang emigrated to America from Switzerland in 1850 after escaping the Prussian Government. He was involved in revolutionary activities in 1848. He then settled down in Boston, Massachusetts and on Christmas of 1873, Prang began to produce and sell greeting cards to the popular market of Europe and began selling the Christmas card in America around 1874, and since that day both Christmas cards and thank you cards have increased in popularity around the world. Surely a text will do?
I'm still waiting for any of our guests to thank me for all the work I've gone to over the past couple of days. Even offering to help would be nice, or even stacking the dishwasher. Grumpy old bugger that I am.
The elderly parentals become more demanding every visit, the sister in law and husband are not too bad but their 2 teenage boys probably don't want to be here. I should be more patient with them I know.
I’m going to fetch my parents on Sunday for a 4 night visit. I’ll probably be joining you on the grumpy step.
I've made a cake that's to big to eat and nobody thanked me for that Then a strange thing happened last night,the face of Jesus appeared on the cake
Or leave dirty plates on the worktop directly above the empty dishwasher. Or start using cups and then mugs to drink orange juice, rather than rinse out one of the many glasses they've already used.
