Wonderful anecdotes and thoughts. <br /><br />Ahh I am getting hungry now and it's already 10:30 at night. I may have to get myself a midnight snack later. :) <br /><br />I made pumpkin pie back in October of last year in honor of Halloween but it didn't work out very well. I'm not that good at baking or cooking in general, sadly. Perhaps I should just stick with my macaroni and cheese! <br /><br />~TRA<br /><br /><a href="http://xtheredangelx.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">The Red Angel Blog</a>Wendy Luhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08048944852796207898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-24956381628511080772012-02-17T21:35:14.069-06:002012-02-17T21:35:14.069-06:00Boys and their moms... it's special.

When my grandpa died, and again last year when my grandma died, we spent a lot of time telling every funny story we could think of about them. It keeps them close.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16313237142656662148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-84146278546494313452012-02-17T20:37:41.436-06:002012-02-17T20:37:41.436-06:00I think it's great to share happy and funny st...I think it's great to share happy and funny stories about those we love. We used to joke to my MIL about her sharing her potato salad recipe and leaving out one ingredient so no one could make it as good as she did. I still think she took the "real" recipe with her to heaven! Hey, if Jilda has the apple pie recipe can't she make it for you so you could be comforted in this difficult time? I'm sure if you asked her nicely she would make it for you...yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-64834137269867555322012-02-17T18:29:33.147-06:002012-02-17T18:29:33.147-06:00Humour helps in dealing with a very emotional and ...Humour helps in dealing with a very emotional and traumatic time for most people.

It is so cute how she was afraid you wouldn't eat the pie any more if you knew the recipe.

It's wonderful to have good memories of your mom.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.com
