As I Recollect

A collection of recollections

Babysitter (early 1970s)

Me and Andrés had this babysitter for a while when we lived in Oakland. Her name was Jenny, I think. She had these great clunky '70s sandals that I loved to try on and attempt to walk in. Her father had some sort of business that involved selling blankets, at the least, because he gave me one. I still have it. Their house was also the first place I saw Indian fabrics with mirrors sewn in. I thought they were the absolute coolest. I thought she was the absolute coolest. She went to UC Berkeley, I think, and was a total California '70s gal.
