[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar II, post: 103984, member: 4391"] <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Penta</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> Take nothing for granted. It could all change in an instance. </div></div> I loved it that the author would have had both grandmothers back cooking together while the family waited (together) for the food to be done. So many of the times I would relive have to do with lots of family around ~ whoever was cooking. There are so many things I would do differently ~ but I keep thinking about that old Maya Angelou quote. Something about how, when we knew better, we did better. So chances are, if I were young, I would do all the same things I did the first time again. I found myself thinking too, last night, about the author's saying that if he had only an hour to live, there would be things he definitely would NOT think about. Asking myself that question put all the things I worry about every day into a different perspective. Man, we worry and worry about the strangest, most inconsequential things! Or at least, I do. [img]:smile:[/img] Lisa...I am almost afraid to ask, but are you willing to share what happened? I had better mail that package I have for my grandchildren, today. Thanks for your replies, everyone.
