When we arrived to visit with Grandma, she was still in the dining room and had just finished supper.  Michael was there helping her and he had fed her this evening.  This came as a big blow to me, grandma has never let anyone feed her.  But she allowed him to do the whole meal, I guess I should be grateful that she ate everything.  It's just hard because grandma has always been so independent.

After supper we were sitting in the dining room visiting and grandma was talking about getting in the kitchen and fixin the white potatoes.   I guess supper made her think about cooking.  She doesn't very often talk about cooking, gardening, nursing, or working in the yard - the things she used to love doing.
