Mom was a sweetie. But my sisters were like Yolanda!!
Gypsy!!
That's a hoot. My reply would have been, "That's right. Food laws here are VERY strict!!
NON!!!
Great idea. She's a little round woman. More to love and winter nights would be cozy!! WHOOOAAAA! WAIT A MINUTE. I'm losing my noodle! It's warm and cozy in Arizona already!
I know you are an atheist and you know that I am a Christian, but we can always be friends. A true Christian accepts everyone and if they don't then they are NOT Christian. I accept you as MY friend!!
So with that, I do not believe in luck. I believe in God's blessings and Mother was a true blessing. BUT!! I see pictures of your Mother and I am sure you feel the same about her!!
Google the translation and you will also get a hearty laugh. Our mother was an excellent cook. After meals we always told her this. She would shyly look away!!
BTW, some of the immigrants that came to America in this particular area were German Russians escaping the war. (I don't know which one but around the 1880's or thereabouts). They brought 2 plants with them to plant in America. Red wheat and the "Russian thistle". In America they were re-named "tumbleweeds".
Tumbleweeds grow in a round shape, when they mature they die and snap off at the root base and the wind blows them around tumbling everywhere, hence, tumble weed. This is how they distribute their seed!!
Thanks, the book parts of Canada but not that much. An Easterly wind took the dust from your area (if I remember rightly) and the Dakotas and Nebraska to New York City a couple of times. The dust landed way our on the Atlantic, 200 miles if I'm correct, and covered many ships.
NON!!!!
Dooooood!! Thanks for the tip. I saw some other stuff that should be real interesting too. For one, child labor in the U. S. !!
