Mom Time..."things my mom knows how to do that I think are cool..."
I've already written about my mom's abilities with target shooting.
Here are some other things about my mom that I think are cool:
- She can sew...and sew WELL
- She can cook...and cook WELL
- She can make patterns for purses, then make the purses
- She can play jacks and tiddly-winks
- She's a leftie that can eat right-handed
- She can quilt
- She can write stories about life in her old neighborhood
- She can forgive people
- She can wax poetic about Charlton Heston's chest (as well as Yul Brynner's chest)
- She can hold her own in a conversation about politics
- She appreciates trivial knowledge
- She likes Foghorn Leghorn and Pepe Le Pew
- She can sit through a classical concert or a rock concert (specifically, Paul Simon, which I'm not sure counts as rock but it does to her so there we go).
- She's been to New York City
- She knows all the lines to "A Visit From St. Nicholas", or at least knows where to look when we get stuck on a line.
- She remembers her kindergarten room, and she remembers going to the gymnasium to listen to FDR's funeral on the radio when she was in the first grade.
- She used to know how to do shorthand.
- She can dance
- She's delivered baby chicks to postal customers before, as well as bees and the occasional coconut.
