I've been asking people about my family, and so far, this is what I have learned. My great great-grandmother, as far as my mom knows was blind for some of her life. She was very independent. She cooked, baked, cleaned her own house, and she had no help.
One time, my mom came to her house for dinner. My great-grandmother had made noodles that day, and when they where eating, someone found out there where bung in the soup she made! somehow, little flies had gotten into the noodle box where the noodles came from. She didn't see the bugs so she cooked the bugs into the soup by mistake!
The important thing about this is that sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself. I never meet my great-grandma, but I know that she is one remarkable woman.
