My grandmother died in 2005. She did not own a computer. I think she could have mastered some computer skills, but she had plenty of interests and activities and friends to keep her engaged in the world. She wrote things down, not fictional stories but events of her life, both past and present. After she died, I was given the honor of keeping some of her writings. I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.

Gearing up for Christmas
Sat., December 7, 2002 - Finished addressing most of my Christmas cards. Talked to Greta in p.m. Mary brought meat of 2 wild ducks & 1 wild goose. Friends of hers hunt but don't care for the meat. They skin the birds & then cut off the meat. I soaked the meat in cold water.
Sun., December 8, 2002 - Nancy came at noon & brought KFC - I had potatoes & fried apples ready. I showered & she did some cleaning. Mitch & Anna here while Mary went to a meeting at Zoya's. We played UNO.
Mon., December 9, 2002 - Mailed 11 Xmas cards. Played cards tonight. Dolores came (I baked 4 loaves of pumpkin bread) here afterward & we played Rummikub.
Now I do remember getting the duck and goose meat from my former co-worker. I do not recall specifically giving it to Grandma, but I obviously did. Half of a memory is better than none at all, right?
For no reason whatsoever, here's a recipe. :-)
