She taught me so many things, like frozen Oreos taste better, lamb is delicious, how to cook in general (and enjoy it), playing Scrabble, reading, visiting the library, and doing crossword puzzles. And there’s more. She died peacefully at the age of 96 in 2013, and I think of her every day!

Awesome!! Thanks for thinking of me. X
You’re welcome!
Congrats darlin’ and great answers! Hawaii is definitely one of my dream places to visit ❤ Forrest Gump is such a great film, but I think one of my ultimate favourites has to either be The Goonies or Stand By Me.
Thank you so much! I love The Goonies! It’s so hard to pick one favorite movie. I need to re-watch Stand By Me soon!
Cool stuff. Well done. How are you with junk food btw?
Thank you! I don’t eat as much junk food nowadays. Certain things make my stomach hurt! I do enjoy the occasional donut.
Thank you for considering me
You’re welcome!
