I miss my Mamaw too. She was everything to me, mother, grandmother, best friend. I remember helping her do laundry in our wash house, with the wringer type washer and hanging the clothes on the line to dry. Those were the best days of my life. brendag1947@sbcglobal.net

ReplyDeleteHi there Callye!
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't let me post on your oringal post, so I hope this counts!
My favorite memory of my Grandmother is this day she took me to the beach. I was sad, because I'd had to leave my mom after a visit. (My parents were divorced, and I didn't get to see mom a lot. It broke my hear to say goodbye as a child.) Anyway, this day, she gave me a little bear, "Bitsy Bear," and together we wrote a poem about it.
Years later, when I was in college, being taught by the same professor who was teaching my grandmother at the time she took me to the beach,my grandmother showed me her poetry portfolio. In it was the poem we wrote together, plus one she wrote about her observations of her granddaughter playing in the waves.
Not only is she a great grandmother, who unfortunately is showing signs of dementia now), but she's supremely independent, extremely intelligent and VERY, VERY creative.
I love my "G-Sue" very much.
Ever since I saw your post I wanted to write about my mom, it is hard to do so, because she is missing, but I do remember a lot of happy moments, althougth we were poor, she always managed to make our lives very fun; Most of all I miss her singing habilities, I never put much attention to her cooking because I was very youg, Now that I started to make cookies on my own I think of her a lot, she use to make the greates cookies ever, not decorated, but they tasted really good. I wish I could win your give away, and my very short story probably won't be the best, but it is fun to participate, I have been thinking about this give away since this last Monday, it is not in the origal post you wrote and probably I di not make it on time, but I finally got the courage to write, I am such a quite woman. Oh well the truth is that I am already a winner just to open a little bit to my self, and really looking a your cooking gives me a lot of ideas, and inspires me keep trying, before I felt alone, I di not have any one to ask a question about what was rigth about baking or any simple question, but now with internet is so much information, that I can not wait until I put the kids to come visit wonderfull sites like your. Kisses.
ReplyDeleteHello, I think I'm late and I'm not in the right place neither: Málaga Spain, so far away ja, ja, ja. But I love all your creations Sugarbelle. And I have a beatiful history too, but mi english is not beatiful is awful, so i let it in spanish, sorry:
ReplyDeleteEsta es la historia de dos hermanas. Sus padres se dedicaban al comercio en Cartagena, las cosas les iban bien. Pero llegó la guerra y a los muy tontos le dio por ayudar en lugar de hacerse ricos con el estraperlo, ¡que cosas! Mi abuela María se murió de tuberculosis cuando mi abuelo estaba en la cárcel, tenía dos niñas pequeñas, mi madre de 5 añitos y mi tía de pocos meses. Su hermana Mercedes se hizo cargo de las dos. Cuando su novio, al que quería con locura, le pidió exiliado en Francia, que se reuniese con él, que había conseguido trabajo y un sitio para vivir, mi abuela Mercedes le dijo que no, que todavía no podía, que se le partía el alma si abandonaba a sus niñas. Terminó casándose con mi abuelo cuando por fin salió de la cárcel, en aquella época era la única forma de poder seguir cuidando a sus niñas. No tuvieron ningún hijo propio. Mi “abuela” Mercedes se murió hace poco, se murió sin saber que conocíamos su historia. Siempre le pidió a mi madre que no nos contase nada, que no fuésemos a dejar de quererla, por no ser nuestra abuela de verdad… Y la queríamos tanto…
Oh, Miriam G., it's a beautiful story, your "grandmother" had a heart of gold
ReplyDeleteI loved my auntie Consol, a friend of my parents, as much as if she were from the family. She loved me anyhow and anywhere. I miss her so much
