CHAPTER SEVEN - MORE ABOUT FOOD
Before I start a new post about "FOOD" I would like to respond to two comments that I received last week.

"One Woman's Journey" said that I have given her food for thought about retirement living. She's far from ready but is finding my experiences in this retirement community interesting. As a matter of fact she said that there is a Brooksby Village in a big city near where her children live.

Even though she's not ready I think it would be a good idea when she visits her family in the "Big City" to make a visit and get acquained with the many amenities an Erickson community like Brooksby has to offer.

There is so much to know, you can't absorb it all in just a few visits. I speak from experience.

I too smiled when I read what "Shirley" said about not eating the chocolate pie.

"If any of you have read the book or seen "The Help" you will understand why she was smiling!!!



Now - ABOUT "MORE"

When Steve was a little fellow one day I had the following conversation with him:

Steve: Ma, I want more.

Me: What do want more of?

Steve: I WANT MORE!"

Me: I don't understand, tell me again - what do want more of?

(at this point he was getting upset because he wasn't getting his
message across)

Then, he pointed to the refrigerator and I knew what he wanted!

I realized that he thought the word for MILK was MORE because I was always asking him if he wanted MORE!

That's it for this week!

Next week there will be more! ;-)
