My grandparents came over for Thanksgiving dinner at my parents. I had some real food for once in a long time and it was oh so good.
After dinner, my mom and I talked with my grandma. She is so funny! She was telling us about her act for the Christmas dinner at the "Manor" (where she and my grandpa live - senior housing). She and some other ladies are going to do slapstick comedy - the Minnesota/Lutheran/Norwegian/Swedish kind (jokes about lutefisk, lefsa and lutherans).
She plays piano BY EAR and plans to have everyone sing the Twelve Days of Christmas from Minnesota. Grandma said they sang it a couple of years ago, but people around there don't have good memories - they won't remember:) She recently recorded a CD - I will put up an mp3 of her soon...
She is also the most liberal 70-something I know. She gives me her old copies of the Nation and loves my "Not My President" tee.
