I was in the Boston Store and there is a whole line of clothes there, I think it was called Free People, any item from the collection could be on Stevie Nicks. And it was priced outrageously like $140.00 for a peasant skirt.

A few years ago, the Mrs, was laughing about some over expensive clothing line that had just came out. The Gucci babouska collection. Lots of leather and what look like rivet heads that hold steel girders together.
Babushka in Russia is an old woman or grandmother. So we can just picture some ancient women, with a headscarf tied under the chin, wearing al this leather, wood, rivet, boots and bags, out in some river beating laundry on the rocks.

Mine has a problem with that as well, turns and looks at you, smiles and keeps doing what he’s not supposed to do.
He’s also learning to try and give you a kiss and a hug when you do get on to him. My husband laughs and tells me to be strong.lol
That’s something else I’m learning, it was easier being strong as a mom than it is as a grandma.lol

Michellc, as I’m sure you remember, soon no will be his favorite word. I am learning with my three year old granddaughter how different girls are. We had all boys. This precious little girl is sweet as honey and has a will of iron. You sometimes have to get up and physically make her do what you tell her, and it is very important to do that, or she really goes off the reservation.
Her brother is 14 months younger and now they are close in size. They fight 23 hours a day. He tries to take whatever she has just because he can, and she goes nuts. She runs throughout the house with her hands clutching whatever toy over her head screaming “He taking it from me Pi Pi! He taking it!” And then ten minutes later she’s trying to hug and kiss him.
Two hours with them and I need a blood transfusion and a brain transplant. And I can’t go two or three days without missing them terribly.

My daughter was never overly sweet, she was tomboy through and through. I tell her now when she gives me a granddaughter I’m going to make her a girl, she and my husband just laugh and say I already tried that once.
Her and her brother 2 years younger than her fought like cats and dogs growing up, but she wouldn’t let anyone else pick on him. My youngest son was actually the sweetest of all my kids. I think because he was the baby and my daughter who was 6 when he was born babied him the most.
My grandson actually reminds me of him, he loves to give hugs and kisses and is usually always happy and never met a stranger. Where he is different is he is stubborn, his mom was a little stubborn, but not like him. I tell her I think she’s having to pay for her husband’s raising. According to his Dad he was a very hard headed kid who got lots of spankings.

Some acquaintances that had never had fresh pork that we raised a pig for and took to our butcher have became even bigger fans of bacon. They called us just to tell us that they had cooked some bacon and wanted to eat it before it was cooked it smelled so good. They went on and on about how they’ve never eaten bacon so good.
That’s what you get when it’s home raised and you have a butcher who knows how to smoke and cure meat.
