The reboot is too recent for Gramma to have watched, but she enjoyed the original and I like to think she would have appreciated this version, as well. Rudi&#8217;s coaching this weekend, so since I can&#8217;t watch new things on tv tomorrow night, maybe I&#8217;ll pull up some old Britcoms. She did enjoy Hyacinth Bucket, Father Brown, and Jean and Lionel.<\/p>\n<p>As I mentioned yesterday, my tea reinforcements have arrived. I&#8217;ll be refilling all the tins that have been depleted and drinking plenty of cuppas.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the quarterly member sale at one of the local bookshops, so I&#8217;ll be heading up that way to indulge (and do some gift-shopping for other upcoming birthdays). I also have plenty of books to read, including some mysteries, which were Gramma&#8217;s favorite genre.<\/p>\n<p>The first round of Sock Madness opened a couple hours ago, so I&#8217;ll be spending a good chunk of time knitting. Gramma was the one who taught me to knit, but I don&#8217;t think she understood why I wanted to bother with socks.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve done a crossword puzzle, so maybe I&#8217;ll fill out the ones from this weekend&#8217;s newspaper in her memory. <\/p>\n<p>The butter is out, so maybe I&#8217;ll bake up a batch of something from Gramma&#8217;s cookbook she made me. Lemon squares would be fast, mint sticks chocolatey, or I could try something new.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to baking sweets, Gramma enjoyed eating them. I have most of a container of ice cream in the freezer, whipped cream to top my cocoa, and Mum suggested I pick up a cannoli or something with Italian pastry cream in it to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, off to bed, because Gramma would not approve of still being up this late!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday would have marked my maternal grandmother&#8217;s 100th birthday, so I&#8217;m planning a celebratory weekend.
