I love the image of your grandmother with the moneybag wrapped around her waist.

I am surprised that you also took the Sunday lunch to the baker to have it baked because few families had an oven in those days, so we must belong to the same generation. I also remember that our baker sometimes mixed dishes... LOL.<br />Thanks for the trip down memory lane, such beautiful memories!<br />Sue.<br />Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05544319811636783606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411459508557383279.post-65079116492250631552012-10-17T17:26:59.313+02:002012-10-17T17:26:59.313+02:00Loree - this is such a heartwarming post.

Here in America (we are such a relative young country) that we cannot speak of a 500 year home. Please keep your rose-tinted glasses on - I like seeing life through them. God Bless you for sharing.

I get the feeling that we are roughly the same age and yet your childhood has links that reach further back into the past than mine. <br />I am so grateful for having grown up in a quieter time with far less worries. A true childhood. One where my Mom would just open the front door and heard me outside to play--all day long! So different... so much simpler.<br />xo,<br />H.Heather Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01316279029849503437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4411459508557383279.post-13230545154779367772012-10-17T16:55:09.366+02:002012-10-17T16:55:09.366+02:00i love your rose-coloured glasses :)

There the world was untouched, and I didn't know that all around the big and less big cities were in ruins and people hungry. We jumped into hay bales, played in the stables, catched butterflies and it was a real happy life. When I compare my childhood to my son's I think they were both happy but in a completely other way. His childhood was in the 70/80.Gattinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06636525277807715146noreply@blogger.com
