Old Timers

This post is something I've been thinking about writing for awhile, however I have not taken the time to form my thoughts and write them down. This is complete randomness and hopefully it makes sense. When I was a kid, I spent summers at my grandma and grandpa's house and was always amused at the sayings my grandma had. There are so many and I regret that I cannot remember them all, but here are a few. Feel free to add more clever sayins in the comments.

1. My grandma used to say "Crumb!" as we would say oops or uh-oh today. She would follow it by saying, "Got enough crumbs you can make a cake."

2. If we would walk on opposite sides of a pole, she had to shout out "bread and butter, bread and butter."

3. My grandpa would always refer to going home as, "heading westbound". No one talks like that any more.

4. When it rained, it was a "nice day for the ducks". Which is still true, just no one seems to see the bright side like that. And I always wondered...do ducks really like the rain?

Well, I must be off to the shower. I will have to think of more of these little sayings and post again later. Have a happy Friday!
