“Remembering… GRANDMA BRADY”

More…  old   PHOTOS…  “Grandma Anne E. Brady”  – – herself…

 

 

 

“Grandma Brady”  another day – – or later… – – evidently done with  the  cleaning  out  of the “Bird Cage” in the previous PHOTO – – my MOTHER told me – – that they always  had a singing “Canary” – – and I still have the special  “bird-bath”  dish that my MOTHER had for her … very own  “Canary!”

Sure am glad that someone with a camera – – thought to take a few PHOTOS of  “Grandma BRADY”  – – – even though these are not the best – – at least —  – if you have very good  “eye-sight”  – – you can see some resemblance  – – to some of the BRADY FAMILY – – and some of  the  “BRADY Clan” – –  – – that are  growing up in…  2017!

These PHOTOS were taken in the early 1900’s – – as you can tell by the length of the  “dress-type apron”   worn to do some work in the home – – or for cleaning the house – – you do remember that “MONDAY” was WASH DAY – – and “TUESDAY”  Iron the clothes day – – each “DAY” of the week you did the same ole stuff – – and were so…  GLAD to HAVE…  a DAY of REST… SUNDAY!

“SUNDAY” was not a day of  rest for this “GRANDMA” – – because all of the married children came home  – – for the special meal that only “GRANDMA  BRADY”  would make – – and they all filled up – – as  everything was made from scratch –  – – and so  “delicious”- the best of  “HOME-MADE” desserts to finish a meal with .  My MOTHER  had told me  – – that “GRANDMA”  always made her own  “BREADS” – – they were selling “BREADS” at some “SHOPS” – – but her FATHER, MR. BRADY – – had said he would only eat the “BREADS” … that his wife, “NAN” would make.

“Those were the “DAYS” where the  FAMILY was altogether  on SUNDAY – – after CHURCH – – all  celebrated the best of meals – – just as if it was  “CHRISTMAS” … every SUNDAY!”
