My grandmother’s rolling pin It’s made from a solid piece of wood–I believe an uncle of mine made it for her in wood shop way back when. It’s way older than me, and everytime I use it, I remember all the times I saw her use it. She’s gone now, so it keeps her and my memories of her alive and well in my heart. =)

My grandmother’s old cast iron 10″ skillet has perched proudly on the back burner of my stove for the last 20+ years. I’ve used it on the average of 4-5 times a week all of that time …it’s shiny black and symbolizes to me family, love, and timelessness.

It bakes cornbread and biscuits, simmers stews and gumbos, holds dressings and one pot meals, and is as familiar to me as my arm.

My 22 year old daughter has just called dibs on it. I am so glad she understands.

My grandmother’s old cookie gun. I have the fondest memories of watching her make sugar cookies with it every Christmas, complete with every kind of sprinkle imaginable. She died of Alzheimer’s a few years ago, and in the last coherent conversation I had with her, she told me she knew how much I had liked it and that she wanted me to have it. I only use it once a year, but every time I take it out, it brings a tear to my eye.
