I remember spending summers with MY grandmother in Wisconsin where we'd feed the birds and fish from the lakeside or short dock (she didn't like the long dock because she was afraid of deep water). I also remember her pulling cooking utensils out of the drawer, one-by-one as she told me what use it had been put to in the "Ladies of the Moose" Kitchen Band that she used to belong to.<br /><br />I'm not sure she did any of that and wondered what I'd remember -- I think she just liked doing it.Dona (waxwing)http://dponline.org/weblognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-23965625637461799412009-07-08T22:04:14.937-04:002009-07-08T22:04:14.937-04:00Wanda, do you ever wonder what OUR grandmothers ho...Wanda, do you ever wonder what OUR grandmothers hoped we'd remember?Eulalia Benejam Cobbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247079657985430691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-25531646196935639612009-07-08T20:12:42.299-04:002009-07-08T20:12:42.299-04:00Oh you are going to make me cry...I so try to be t...Oh you are going to make me cry...I so try to be this for my grandchildren...my youngest is 6 year old Alivia...we share similar outings...thank you for your touching post!Wanda.....https://www.blogger.com/profile/00551160819558198338noreply@blogger.com
