    Grandmothers Memorial Dinner

    My grandmother passed some years ago. Twice a year our family gets together for dinner, once celebrating her birth, and the other celebrating her life. Tonight we got together for her birthday dinner, she was born in Aberdeen, Scotland & passed away in Cincinnati, OH. My uncle does the cooking, this time we had Rob Roy Chicken (haggis stuffed in chicken breast) Peas and carrots, mashed tatties. We drank some Tennants Lager, Guinness, Dewars. I wore my USA kilt Buchanan Semi-trad. Just thought I'd share a few photos.

    Steve,

    That's a great way to remember your grandmother. Our family identity is involved in the stories that we tell and the meals we share.

    You look really sharp!
    Things I've learned in life:
    What you focus on becomes your reality.
    You can't control what other people do or say, you can only control how you respond.
    Don't act your age, it's not healthy.
