As a Virginian, I loved going to the Southern Baptist church and Bible School. It was such a refreshing break from the Mormon church. Wish we could spice up the Mormon Church meetings more

What a delightful post. I loved the descriptions of your Sunday fish fry and of course times with your Granny. I loved the analogy of being well fed.
Blessings to you!

I'm impressed that as a young child you loved greens!

Also, as a Grandma myself now, this post encourages me to keep traditions alive with my grandchildren.

Thanks for sharing about how wonderful your Granny and parents were to encourage the relationships and to give you a "double helping" on Sundays. What precious truths are learned from feeding all of God's children! Thanks for something to ponder.

What's your calling in your ward? Maybe you can put things in motion to have a fish fry of your own once a year in your ward. Could be a missionary reach-out possibility as well. And you could make your Granny's greens as a fitting contribution.

I am so loving your stories! I want to go to a fish fry now... I am way up here in WA state, I am sure they gotta have one somewhere. Thanks so much for making me laugh and cry all in one sitting, you R-O-C-K! ~ Hugs ♥

Love that one today. when I was in a singles ward, they always broke the fast by having a potluck dinner together at the church. It was my favorite Sunday tradition. Wish I could have gone to one of your granny's fish frys!

Ah man, I lived in TN all that time and never went to a fish fry. What was I thinking? You made my mouth water with this one. And, yes, greens, can actually be edible by a white girl if she finds them cooked by just the right person. all greens are not created equal.

Thanks for the post. I know you wrote it just for me.

That was beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Talk about a time warp -- I think you just took me back about 25 years! Thinking about potluck suppers at the Baptist church I grew up in brings a tear to my eye and makes me thankful for the foundation of faith that was built there. Thanks for sharing!

A lovely reminiscence, Sista Laurel. Thanks.
