Inspirations


Inspirations are funny they come at odd times you don't ask for them really or not necessarily try and channel them but you can be thinking about one thing and poof your inspiration is there. Yesterday while riding to millington with my husband and child and was thinking about budgets and stretching them and buying groceries and cooking things that will feed my family nutritiously for the best price things that are on most women's minds most of the time. When I got to thinking about my Mamaw. I remember her cooking a full meal three times a day breakfast, lunch , and then dinner. Now when I say she cooked lunch I don't mean that she fixed them a sandwich or the typical lunch of today she cooked a full meal everyday at lunch time. She worked hard her whole life taking care of her family raising seven children, tending crops and livestock and poultry canning and preserving the harvest every year. She was an amazing woman. She feed her whole family with very little money. She made her foods from scratch and they were some of the best tasting foods I have ever had. So my goal is to be more like my Mamaw she was a hard working, god fearing woman who cared well for her family and I only hope that I turn out to be have the woman that she was.
