"My family owned a restaurant and lived above it when I was a little girl, and my great-grandmother lived with us. She was a very, very devout Christian. When my sister and I got home from school in the afternoons, she wouldn't let us go out and play; she made us stay inside, and she taught us to sew and crochet. She taught us proper etiquette too. I didn't appreciate it then, especially the crocheting, but I do now. My own children didn't care about that sort of thing growing up, but my daughter who is a medical physicist told me not long ago that she wants to learn to crochet. Both my granddaughters are interested now too, so I'm going to be able to pass it along after all."
