Grandma's Kitchen

 

On Sunday grandma cooked a huge delicious family meal,
and her kitchen had so many wonderful smells.

On Monday, I often had slept over and at breakfast,
I helped her cook  . . .  eggs, bacon, toast and coffee. 

On Tuesday, me and mom stopped by to help bake cookies,
peanut butter and chocolate chip-   I licked her old bowl clean.

On Wednesday, grandma took care of me for the evening,
we would sit in that old kitchen with her cat and kittens in a basket.

On Thursday, grandma called she had made a big stew,
come she said, so we did . . . me and dad soaked bread in the gravy.

On Friday,  grandma was having trouble with her recipe so she called,
mom and me went but I think it was just an excuse to see us again.

On Saturday, mom said lets surprise grandma with a meal already made,
take out, and she was horrified, lol.  I am not sure she ever got over that.
