My grandma is your stereotypical grandmother. She cooked, sewed, and quilted. She LOVED to sew and was always sewing something. Usually she had several different projects going at once. One Christmas she made all thirteen grandchildren quillows. I have no idea how long she spent sewing those things but I love mine.
Isn’t it amazing how books can instantly help you relive how you felt when you read them? I loved, loved, LOVED reading The New Junior Classics set when I was on the farm. My grandparents had a huge library of books. When you were in the middle of nowhere Kansas there wasn’t much to do as a child except read, read, read and although there were a ton of books there weren’t a lot that appealed to a child except for these. I remember pouring over every page and soaking in these stories. I won this set in the auction and I was so glad to get them. I can’t wait to start reading these to my daughter soon.
I loved the Little Golden Books, they were some of my favorite stories growing up.
