My Dead Grandmother: Under Fire
http://mydeadgrandmother.blogspot.com/2013/02/under-fire.html
Blogging the life of my sometimes crazy, often angry, always tough Portuguese grandmother. Thursday, February 7, 2013. My car caught on fire. Part of not understanding Vovó is not being very aware of Portuguese culture. I was born in the U.S. to parents who had been here for decades. Were my family's behaviors a product of ethnic identity or just who they happened to be? The small house on A Street. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Chronicles her journey as a writer.

My Dead Grandmother: Fighting Words
http://mydeadgrandmother.blogspot.com/2013/02/fighting-words.html
Blogging the life of my sometimes crazy, often angry, always tough Portuguese grandmother. Thursday, February 14, 2013. You're just like Vovó.". This softened some as she drifted into extreme old age. She still picked fights, still tossed out casual insults at family dinners, like the Easter when she was introduced to the fiance of a family friend. She took one look at him and said, loudly, "Why would you marry this fat bald old man? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Life in the Sun.

My Dead Grandmother: Having a Voice
http://mydeadgrandmother.blogspot.com/2013/04/having-voice.html
Blogging the life of my sometimes crazy, often angry, always tough Portuguese grandmother. Thursday, April 4, 2013. My grandfather Avô Gilberto died a few months after I was born so I only know him from stories and photographs. I'm told he was a larger-than-life character, quick to joke and a well-known figure in the Portuguese community. He had worked as a journalist in Portugal and after coming to the U.S. he started his own newspaper, Voz de Portugal. I love this fake publicity still. Life in the Sun.

http://mydeadgrandmother.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Blogging the life of my sometimes crazy, often angry, always tough Portuguese grandmother. Thursday, January 31, 2013. Vovó Flora was forgetful and confused the way a lot of elderly people are. Senile dementia makes you hazy on time frames, unsure about who people are, and prone to agitation and disturbed planning. There's no fooling Vovó Flora. There is no arguing with that. Thursday, January 24, 2013. Thursday, January 17, 2013. A Tale Of Two Sisters. When I reflect on the non-grandmotherly ways. There...

Sonoma Cork Dork: B-day - Anniversary
http://sonomacorkdork.blogspot.com/2010/07/b-day-anniversary.html
Monday, July 5, 2010. There has been a lot of celebration in the last 10 days - my birthday, my anniversary and 4th of July. This is always a busy and fun time of year for me and I love sharing this time with friends and family. First, my birthday brought a celebration at home to break in the new Weber BBQ. Of course, we had some great wine to go along with the BBQ. I tried my hand at slow roasted baby back ribs. They were gobbled up pretty quick, so I think it went well. On the plaza in Sonoma. This...
