I'm so glad this book brought back wonderful memories of your grandmother – what a treat!

Thanks for being on the tour.

My grandmother was AMAZING! Like yours she was gone too soon. She always gave the perfect thoughtful gifts and I felt very special to be her grandaughter!

My grandmother was such an example to me. I miss her dearly. She lived with us in a tiny little home. The funny thing is whenever she tried to give me advice, my mother would tell her to leave me alone. I guess because she was always getting after me for one thing or another.One time i remember making a cake and her getting after me for something, like hanging the dish towel on the back of the chair. But i loved her and just remember she had a very strong German staunch personality. You could never sneak in or out of the house or sneak anything out with out her knowing. LOL! Now that i am older i understand why!!

Oh, I'm drawing a blank on actual advice from my dearly loved grandmother. But I'm not drawing a blank on "advice" that came in the form of her loving, caring and attentive nature. She was a much loved and sweet woman that could cook like nobodies business having worked in some Jewish homes in Detroit early in her day. I think this would be a great read!

I had one grandmother so full of advice that it went in one ear and out the other! The other grandmother, however, didn't offer advice as much as set an example. So much better!
She always made the effort to include everyone, love unconditionally and make sure we were always comfortable and happy. She was awesome.
