All in one little red book


My favorite book

I've been a little sad lately,
Missing precious souls that made my life so complete in years past.
Aka, my Grandparents.
It's a bit strange because they passed away years ago.

A few days ago Jax climbed on the kitchen counter & grabbed this OLD red cook book.
My grandma Darlene's Better Homes & Gardens "New" cook book.
New in 1976!
She had this up in her cupboard years before I was born.
(eons really. Lol)
I have a million & one sweet memories of me sitting up on Grandmas counter,
sunshine shining through the window on my bare tootsies,
& just eating up my Grandmas love for cooking.

Then I had an aha moment.
This was exactly what I was doing right now.

My Jaxy sitting on the kitchen counter, holding the same ole book as my little hands did.
Making memories, & delicious food.

I know this is super cheesy, BUT...

It was almost like my Grandma was saying hello,
& that I still have that love right in front of me.
Just bigger & better.

We had us some good times making muffins that morning, let me tell ya!








hahaa... this boy likes him some milk!
