Some argue it’s all about blood; Great Auntie Ethel’s nose and Grandma’s tenacity and Cousin Albert’s ability to pinch a penny. Family characteristics that can only be passed on by that liquid that’s thicker than water.
Here on the Homestead, we beg to differ.
This week’s (very late!) Sage Words were delivered, along with monkey bread and a Muppet soundtrack, by The Renovator who is both one of the eldest and youngest Homesteaders. However, we would like to tweak Kermit’s words one tiny bit.
I’m fascinated by the thought of Renovator being one of the youngest and oldest at the same time, but I guess that’s maybe true of all of us. Love the family portrait – produced by a Homesteader?
Union Homestead 
There’s nothing like belonging to a ‘family’ of whatever kind.
What a team – what a family!!
😀
Amen and Amen. Love this!!
Monkey bread? Banana bread? Isn’t there a song with the refrain ‘We are family’? Family – those who will put up with you like no one else.
Monkey bread is like a cinnamon scroll marinated in sugary butter. My arteries are still groaning.. but it was delicious 😀
