Thank you, Maggie. I wish I could make my roast chicken as well as my oma, but maybe it would never be as good because the essential ingredient was her!

Monique - I love the little snippets that give us a peek inside your family and your life. These small moments of connection and emotion are beautiful. Thank you.

Thank you for saying that. Sometimes I wonder if others really are interested but then a comment like this makes me smile.

My stepmother is watching One Day right now (I’m visiting) and I just know she’s going to be very sad soon.

I’m really enjoying writing this way - exploring vignettes and tying them to something larger.
