“My Grandma Karen is my Dad’s mom. I was very close with her–she was like my babysitter when I was little. She would pick me up from school all the time and I would spend a lot of time with her…it’s kinda like she raised me, so I am very similar to her. And, we would cook a lot and garden a lot, so this is the first time I have my own house and we have a yard. Now, I find myself gardening [and] cooking for Christmas. Last Christmas, she knew this was the first time having my own house and had made a cookbook with all our family recipes handwritten [for me]. And so, I really like cooking…not that great at baking. And, even though there is distance, I still call her everyday.”
