I never knew my grandmothers.
I still don't know a lot about them but my Grandma Marie is definitely the one I know the least about.
She was my Mother's Mother.
Born and raised in Oklahoma during a difficult time in our country's history, I don't imagine life came easy for her.
I do know that at the end of her life she was a collector of salt and pepper shakers.
Now that me and my eight sibling have families of our own, the collection is being distributed among us.
I know it's nothing fancy; but it gives me a little glimpse of Marie's sense of humor.
I chose the fake toaster with the removable "toast" shakers.
I will treasure it always.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all out there!
I feel so grateful for so many things, and hugely grateful for all of you.
I hope you have a beautiful holiday. See you back here for five senses friday?
Cheers!
