...in the form of my sweet grandmother's needlepoint. Veggie needlepoint.

...a little bit yellowed and from another time.

Of course, I love it.

I think I remember these hanging on the walls of their kitchen; the kitchen where I have stood barefoot many times on the cold, white terrazzo, watching as Mar puts together the "Sallie salad" of assorted veggies she knows I like--each type into a section of her compartmentalized glass tray.

Sweet memories.

Crunchy, refreshing veggies.

Now hanging above our stove :)
