Like my mom

It seems that I looked very much like my mom. When we were out together, people would remark on that fact. There are old pictures somewhere in my basement that show a very strong resemblance.

I know I am continuing some of my mom's traits and so is my sister. My sister is a great cook. I took her the contents of my mom's recipe box.

The last time I visited my sister, she put me to work cleaning silver. She said my mom had cleaned silver for her too. I have distant memories of my grandmother - my mom's mom - cleaning silver in Lachute.

I started to read the Kathy Reichs series. My mom liked them because of the Montreal connection - she went to university and lived in Montreal during the war.
