I loved reading this story again! I never realized that mother’s massive collection of coupons from every supermarket in the region started with her father, our grandfather! If she knew I was coming over from Holland to visit, she would select coupons like ‘two French breads for the price of one’ at some fabulous supermarket 45 minute drive from her home. She would drive me and Jakob to the store and we all went in and got the bread and lingered at all the other fabulous expensive displays of everything beyond delicious! And then we went back home. A day later there was a special on her favorite ice cream, on the other side of town. Love, Kate
