My Granny Cakes


Once upon a time there lived an old lady that lived at the bottom of a mesa in New Mexico, her name was Rebecca. This lady had three crazy kids, and they gave her plenty of grandchildren that could barely all fit in her house.  Every birthday she would spoil her grandchildren with Butterfingers, Snickers, Ramen noodles, and crackers of all sorts. Not your average family you might see every day, but this is her world. A long time ago she had a gambling problem, this old lady would ask for a dollar to play her promo. An old lady like her she had a rude side, waitresses and waiters feared for their lives; afraid she’d say “off with their heads!” or her famous quote “it’s about time” this quote was applied to any person who wastes her time. During her nights with her grandchildren she’d read them a chapter in her “fairy tale” book, luckily the children were little and didn’t understand the full meanings of the words she spoke. Imagine if they knew what thrust and lingered really meant in a full sentence, not even a good picture for them to imagine. This old lady still scares waiters, still spoils her grandchildren, and this time actually reads children fairy tale books. This old lady is my grandma, and yes I was spoiled with Ramen noodles.
