What I learned about my grandma

So I got back last night from Portland, after a great weekend visiting with family. I figured that it would only be right to write down what I learned about my grandma, so I can remember it later.

-She is obsessed with roosters. They are everywhere! Porcelain figurines, painting, calendars. It's so grandmotherly!
-Now that she is retired, she goes to estate sales and buys other people's stuff.
-She owns the movie Bruno. How that happened, I have no idea. But it is on her DVD collection. (Grandkids were probably the reasoning behind it...I hope)
-She loves cats and has two of them. A creepy wild cat and a cute black cat named Twilight. I thought of Stephanie Meyer's book instantly.
-She has a good collection of books, which includes the 50 greatest books collection (or something to that affect.) She has a few Nora Roberts books, but the Mythology book and Hemmingway made up for it.
-As we were leaving the party, I told her we were headed to her house to party some more. Her exact words "Well, as long as there is gonna be hard liquor. It's my 80th birthday and I still haven't had any liquor." Haha it was pretty great.

Just some quick memories that I don't want to forget!
