Grandma's Stories

Where is the girl who made these treats? I'll just have one while you settle your seats. A cup of tea would not go a miss… the bitter with sweet is hard to resist. Now as I was saying…what was that my dear? Let me turn up this aide so I can hear. Tell you a story? That's why your all sittin’ round me? Well I'll have to think of one…now, let me see…”
