smithlabs! haha! land of the giants, that's amazing. but your mother was only 5ft 4" right? I think that's what you said.

We ate very well, and grew up tall! :)

@smithlabs you probably ate like a horse!

Neighhhh, Pwwch , LOL! But we did eat well. I remember that Mom put up over 500 quarts of canned goods one year. She could really COOK! :)

and you all could really EAT! haha..500 quarts?? that sounds insane.

Six kids, and we were Poor. We canned everything we could, and I foraged for edibles when they were there.

wow smithlabs! you were already out there foraging for food when you were a kid?
