Oh how i Loved to set at her big ole Long Table with a long Bench on the back side of the Table.
Her Cooking was the best ever Her Bacon and eggs and great home made Buscuits with Gravy.
I can Just see her run her Buscuit threw the greese in the Skillet now.
Her big cut long tators Fried.
Her Great upside down Pineapple Cake.
Back then they all could cook so good.
Her Pretty home made Quilts.
She left us just to Young , I was Only 18 years and Almost 2 Months old when Grandmaw Died.
She Died 1 Week to the day Before my Oldest Son Was Born.
