Today Mom's grandmother (known as Great Grandma Nina on this blog) passed away. She'd known Mom all her life, having lived in the same house as Mom since she was born. She taught Mom almost everything she knows about cooking, including how to make blintzes, split pea soup, and fried eggs just the way Mom likes them. She filled the house with homemade danishes for Rosh Hashanah and Matzoh ball soup on Pesach. When Mom and Aunt Inna were little girls, she spoiled them with homemade french fries, butter noodles, and chocolate butter sandwiches. She was always there with a sarcastic comment and a crooked smile.
This is a photo of Great Grandma Nina when Babulya was younger than Mom is today, Mom was about 5, and Aunt Inna was around 7.
Here are many of the pictures of her we've posted on this blog over the last 2.5 years.
