are the good times really over for good?
since my granddaughter was born Ive started remembering "grandma's house" and the things that stick out in my mind are, helping her make biscuits, The sound of canning jars popping when they seal, snapping, and shelling beans, all the women in the family spending the day canning corn, some on the cob, some off the cob. My mother, and im pretty sure none of my aunts except maybe one, still do that stuff. It's more convenient now to go to the store and buy the premade stuff, and its sad to think that when my granddaughter is my age canning, and gardening, and all those things former generations depended on could be a lost art, so i have made it my mission to carry on those family traditions for her, and I wish I had done it for my children when they were younger, but Im doing it now, so maybe they will pick up on some of it.
What family traditions do you try to keep alive for younger generations?
