Maybe being almost 38 has a different perspective but my grandma that I still had until last year, I never expected her to have wifi. We got her a computer in the 1990s. She tried to use it, got pissed and turned it off. It sat in the corner with a special cover she'd made to put over it so it wouldn't get dusty. Never to be used again.
"How old is this thing?" *sees heiroglyphics* "How old is granny???" My sides still hurt from laughing so much. And of course, we have all experienced... HALLELUJAH! Hallelujah. Halleluhah.
Sadly, my grandmother couldn't cook so I never got that moment when I woke up. She thought that high is the best and only temperature on which to cook things because it's faster. There was no arguing with her.
ya'll have obviously never met my grandma from the north. she grew up in the great depression (and apparently still thinks its going on).... no hallelulah moments there.... she FREEZES MILK. (and everything else too) she's more apt to serve the biscuits she snuck home in her purse from a restaurant someone else took her to (oh, she'd never pay to go out to eat herself!) last year that have been waiting in the freezer for a special occasion like breakfast with the fam. lol
I live with my 90 year old grandmother and I’ll walk through the unventilated house sweating to death and get lectured for not wearing enough clothing because I should be “cold”. 🥲
My Grandma’s bathroom always smelled like Ivory soap, a fragrance I love to this day. Her kitchen smelled like delicious pot roast and rhubarb. She had a huge screened in porch where we could sleep on hot nights or play on when it rained. Grandma’s house was so close to Heaven even if it was in Illinois; nobody’s perfect.😊
For my entire existence, my grandma used the same dish soap. I've always associated the smell with her. Then one day, when I was in my late 20's, I went to visit her and she had a different dish soap. It really threw me for a loop.
Ivory soap is the best! It truly is 99.9 % pure soap. When my husband was in the hospital for serious infections, the wound nurse suggested Ivory for cleaning his wounds. I’m a big fan now.
My grandparents had lava pumice soap, had a kitchen that was remodeled in the 1960’s with brown appliances, had an enclosed upper porch that was popular with us grandchildren, had toys in their basement and one year, us grandchildren played hide and go seek in the dark in the basement while the grownups played board games upstairs one thanksgiving
Click the link and you shall find.... a 404 error. (With much the same result if you click "games" on the menu, as they don't have any on offer despite including it in the menu of things you supposedly should be able to find on the website. Guess that's what happens when you don't give your employees many rights or pay them appropriately?)
When I used to spend the night with my great-grannie she would always put me in the room where she kept her dolls. I could’ve swore one night when I was 10 that I saw one of those dolls turn it’s head to look at me. I grabbed my blanket and pillow and ran to sleep on the couch in the living room. The next morning I told her I walked there in my sleep. I didn’t want her to feel bad for putting me in a room full of haunted dolls lol.
That's not a big southern breakfast. Where's the milk/buttermilk? Ham? Sausage gravy? Creamed chipped beef? Muffins or sweet breads? Hotcakes? That's what some advertiser thinks a real southern breakfast looks like...
That's exactly the snail I was thinking of. Plus at my Grandma and Grandpa's house they had cedar paneling everywhere so there was definitely a hint of cedar to everything.
My grandma always had my poptarts, toaster strudels, chicken nuggets and chocolate milk & blankets stocked up for when I came for the weekends lol. She made my childhood and teen years so magical. Lost her when I was 20. I'm 26 now and still cry out for her sometimes when I'm feeling really down 😭
I lost my Nanny last year. Tomorrow will actually be a whole year she’s been gone. I know how you feel, she lived close by and when I was younger I was almost always at her house on the weekends. Now my Nana on the other hand lives in Texas so I unfortunately don’t get to see her that often. But boy I sure treasure her extra now after losing one grandma😓. Not to mention we also lost Papa (Nana’s husband) in March of last year as well💔
When I was a child, my Grandma told me that we "don't lose grandparents, they just gain their wings, relocate, and keep on looking out for us from above". Your Grandma sounds amazing - I've no doubt she's doing her best to watch over you, especially on the days when you miss her most 💕 Sending heartfelt condolences 💖
I'm over 60 and my grandmother died when I was 23. I loved her so much and have great memories of her. I still miss her to this day and was just talking about her this week. Used to go lay on her grave and cry in the . middle of the night. Not so long ago. Love them while they're here!
My grandma will be 100 on the 29th of May. She is the sweetest person I know. Her body is very fragile now but by er spirit is strong as ever. Always ready for a good laugh. I Love you Grandma. I'm 59 years old and still have a Grandmother Wow. I feel so Blessed.
work hard Similar story here-my paternal grandmother is 99, and other than severe macular degeneration age still has all her oars in the water! I love her with all my heart, and I hope she makes it to 100!
Penelope Pitstop My maternal grandmother died when I was 15 after six years of declining physical health and dementia on top of that, so having seen that extreme I definitely count my paternal grandmother as one of the very lucky ones! I don’t have either of my grandfathers either-my maternal grandfather died before my parents got married, and my paternal grandfather died 19 years ago (our older daughter is named after him).
I miss my grandma sooo much!!! 😢 I used to stay there every Friday night. I loved it! She cooked so good, and we always watched tv together. No spooky dolls or decorated bathrooms. Just 100% pure love. She died when I was 20 yrs old. I miss her every day! To all the lucky grandkids who have living grandparents, love them every day and never forget to tell them how much you love them.
this is so sweet! and I often tell millenials that I know they don't understand this but the longer they hold having kids, the less chance they have of being grandparents themselves. The joy i had watching my mum become a granny was so special, I'm looking forward to one day sharing that time with my own daughters.
@@rikiforever420 My grandmother had a cast iron skillet, It was huge, That sucker weighed The same as a 2 year old, It was I swear 100 years old, But some of the best Bacon,biscuits,ham, Gravy,pancakes came from that thing, The only other person allowed to touch it, Was granddad, He like to cook deer and elk venison in it, He make his cornbread too, And his coal miner water biscuits, Squirrel Gravy, I'm surprised me and my cousins not the size of freaking houses now , One rule in my grandparents house, You don't leave hungry, Very rarely there were left overs, 😁
The trick is, use the soap from the very bottom of the pile, dry it out then put it back under the others. Use the back of the non-corded layer of towel to dry hands then be sure it’s still folded before leaving powder room.
I just lost mine a month ago. Honestly, I don’t know how I’m going to feel when someone buys her house. My Pawpaw built the house himself. No one else has lived there. I live right next door.
OMG truth!! Every thing from garden, wake up to the pressure cooker full of fresh green beans 🤗. Cream corn, fresh tomatoes and Vidalia onions. Cornbread, morning homemade scratch biscuits and bacon. 🤤🤤🤤
Yessss!!! Everything picked fresh from the garden: tomatoes, cabbage, string beans, collard greens, bell peppers, zucchini, etc. What I wouldn’t do to turn back the hands of time 20 years... I’d love to be sitting in my grandma’s kitchen chatting away while she made chicken and dumplings, peach cobbler, fried chicken, et al.
This is actually how every summer goes when my family visits my grandparents, from the bathrooms and the bedroom to the biscuits and gravy in the mornings. My grandma died last year and my grandpa hasn’t been the same and we’ve yet to visit him, but I hope we can still make memories without her physical presence. I love you so much, Grandma Betty❤️
Try to visit and call as often as you can, when you've been married for so many years you don't know who you are anymore without your spouse, he's probably very lonely
lol, my grandparents house in Peru looks the exact same and the bed covers are made of feathers so when I sleep I feel all of these feathers and some end up on me, and everything like EVERYTHING is decorative, their house is filled with ceramic, old rusty furniture, paintings, and tiles, like SO MANY TILES
Completely hilarious, and all true....yet my heart breaks as I would give almost anything to just spend one more night at Grandma's house. If you've got one still, enjoy her while she's here!!
My grandma made the best homemade sourdough biscuits, bacon gravy, and despite her constantly apologizing for this or that “mistake” in her cooking, those breakfasts were perfect and are some of my fondest memories. She’d slather bacon grease on stale breads to feed the raccoons just outside the screened porch so we could watch them while we ate our breakfast. Even now, 23 years after my last breakfast in her house, I am reminded just how much I miss her and how precious those times were. Thank you.
@@magicalomaha2804 my granny had a doll face with knitting all around it, I guess like flower pedals? Anyway that thing creeped us out big time! I think that's why she hung it up right next to her canning room/celler, to keep us kids out. Grandpa would also tell us there was an alligator back there lol so that room was well protected from children, we scooted down the stairs on our butts instead lol
@@kohakuaiko some were knitted though or crocheted I definitely remember the knitted ones in not only my grandparents homes but a lot of older peoples homes we visited when I was growing up
Man I wished I could spend a day in my grandparents house again. I sure do miss them. Even the cushion toilet seat with a tear that pitched my butt. Now I'm a grandma, I hope I'm half as good as they were. My grandparents loved me and spoilt me rotten lol.
The spirit behind this short video is very loving. My "granny" was not southern. She was from rural northern Indiana. She too was a lady through and through. She ran a proper household replete with the lovely (and seemingly) "no touch soap and hand towels." She had the disguised extra (and most merciful!) roll of emergency toilet paper. She had the old yet comfortable mattresses once you settled in for the night. She also had sweets in candy dishes stashed all throughout the house. Martha Jane's house smelled faintly of lavender, always "clean," and otherwise I guess I have to say, it simply smelled of good peaceful living and regular ways and in the end, "love," as I believe it is meant to be. I lost my dear friend (my lovely grandma) five years ago this month. Were she to be living today, she would be looking forward to celebrating her 99th birthday early this June in 2019. My grandmother, Martha Jane, was born in June of 1920. I will never forget her. She taught me how to appreciate, how to encourage, how to just give up and give thanks and be humble when giving thanks to our Lord. This video clip here is a tourist advert for visiting Vicksburg, Mississippi. I once visited Jackson, MS, and was invited to go to nearby Vicksburg on an outing. I declined at the time. Some day I would love to go back and visit again even though I don't know a soul there in MS. However, I believe I learned perhaps from now on what I need to know from my lovely grandma. God bless those who put together this short video. It's very special, very relatable across time and space and culture. Good job! -Tom from Michigan
Hi Liberty. I was born in Indianapolis. Then we moved to Michigan when I was only five years old. Then we moved to Missouri a little later where we lived for almost ten years. Then we moved to Delaware way over on the east coast, and then again we moved back to Michigan! My wonderful dad (such a kind man, now 83 years old) was a Chrysler Corp. executive who never, ever, forgot about his wife and kids. In the meantime, my former wife and I fell in love and moved away back to northern Indiana (Marion) where we had our lovely son Matt in early 2000. Such long stories here, I guess. Dear son Matt is now 19 and doing great, and Pam and I after many years remain friends. Just sharing here. -Have some hugs from Tom :-)
Don't forget get about the old fashioned candy cemented in her fancy candy dish. As a kid I really wanted to eat it but I was never strong enough to break a piece free😥
Yes! My papa(grandma) had three creepy porcelain dolls in the den which is now my room after we moved in and because there were still things that need to be unpacked the dolls we’re in my room I didn’t sleep the whole night those things were creepy as heck I honestly thought they were going to murder me
Dear grans...I miss you both terribly. How I remember the fun times over night at your houses, and the special ways you both made me feel. I'm a grandpa now and know first-hand how you felt. Thank you for demonstrating love in a million ways, and investing your time into your grandchildren.
I was blessed to have my Grandmother till she was 105...and I was 55 with grandchildren of my own. Sweet to go visit multiple generations all in one visit. The soap thing really got me. You didn't know whether or not to use one of those little decorative soaps, so we just let it sit through the 60's, 70's and all up till 2010 when she died. Also, my Grandmother used to stock the guest bath with white towels. My wife would always tell me to 'just wipe my hands on my jeans' so I wouldn't mess up my Grandmother's towels. Gotta love it.
My great grandparents moved to NorCal from Louisiana for my mom and grandma. They found the warmest place they could and still have the fire going all year long. 80-90 degrees outside? “It’s a little chilly. Will you help me with the firewood?” I miss them to tears. She was the first person to let me cut with a sharp knife. We made banana pudding. I can still smell it and the coffee they always had.
Mine never turned the AC on and I always had to leave the house with a sweater even in the summer! Ohhh you should’ve seen once I had babies, they had to be covered like it was Alaska! 😆
@@heritage.fields literally 85° in the house, me - grandma im hot (sweat dripping off my nose. Grandma - It is not hot (in a drawn out Potosie Missouri accent lol.
I mean it is a southern thing just for me a southern Melbourne thing from the soap to the pillowed toilet to the dolls & the creaky floorboard & the uncomfortable bed thats 100 years old sadly she has passed away but she will always live in my heart
To all of those who no longer have their grandma with them today, She is in a much better place and is watching over you all the time with her proud smile 😇❤️
Thank you. One of my grandmothers died when my dad was only 5, so I never met her. The other died in 2015. And I lost my mom in 2017. Both grandfathers are dead too. But, I still have my dad. The video reminds me more of my great grandmother's house than my grandma's house. I would totally sell my house and buy hers if it was on the market. I loved how that house was laid out. I would probably have to do a decorative bathroom just like she had.
awww 🥺 my memaw died a couple years ago and my grandma died even before my mom got married, i have my childhood nanny (who is older) and i treat her like a grandmother, we think of each other as family
Yep. Not only a southern thing. Works in France too. Creepy dolls and everything. (Mine liked dolls with spanish outfits for some reason) Grandmas are universal 🤣
My granddaddy passed a couple of weeks ago and I spent so many happy weekends at their house when I was growing up and breakfast was always a highlight. This video made me tear up a little but it made me think of a lot of good times.
I loved to smell my grammas cookies baking in the oven, while We played outside mmmm 😋 she always smelled like rose soap and she was so gentle and kind 😭😭😭 i miss her so much!!! She died when i was 12 I love you grandma Delores
Thank God for so many of us ..... still having GRANDMA'S .... with so much first rate "housekeeping" & hospitality skills! ..... A comfortable, nurturing home is a gift from God! ..... 💜💥💫💜
Your experience visiting with Grandma was a little different that mine. Keeping in mind most of my visits were when I was quite young and over Christmas vacation. Central Kentucky can be a cold place in the winter. The trip to the bathroom required putting on a coat and walking through the snow to the little building with the door that had the crescent moon cut out. As to more blankets, yes please. Could I get another? What really kept you warm was the two of there cousins that shared the bed. The Franklin stove tried to heat the whole house. On the other hand, the breakfast was exactly the same. Biscuits with fresh butter and sorghum molasses or black raspberry jam. And, of course, at dinner time, 'nanner pudding!
My great grandparents house was that way. They only had a fireplace for heat and running water in the kitchen. We took baths in a wash tub and went to the out house. That was in the 70's.
Me too. Mine died when I was 22, and she was great. I would love to eat some of her food right now. She taught me recipes while she was still here, but it’s not the same. She made everything she cooked much better with grandma magic.
Also: Granny- you hungry hunny? Me- nah grams I just ate before I got here. Granny- hunny are you sure. It wont take me long to fix something. Me- yeah I'm sure grams, it's ok. Granny- now hunny it's no problem just let me go fix you a sandwich. Me- I'm sure grams. I'm really not hungry Granny- I have lunch meat sweetie, lemme fix you something to eat. Me- ok grams, I guess I could eat a little bit. Granny- 😀😁 Good hunny I knew you were hungry, it wont take me but just a minute my sweet girl. At granny's house, you're always hungry. ❤
Yes! Force fed so much I used to give it to my dog when I thought gramma wasn't looking. Poor little fat Chihuahua named Tootsie. Last month I was cooking for Gramma & tried to force feed her, mimicking her, she told me "go on outta my face with that!" I said "Gramma, I've been waiting my whole life to force feed you" She laughed & said "You gave my good cooking to Tootsie when YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING" LOL! Nothing I could say to that.
My grandma would have family dinners and she literally COULD NOT stay in her chair to eat. She was always up going "You want some more ham/chicken/cornbread/potato salad/black eyed peas/turnip greens .... How about some more sweet tea?" Then five minutes later: "Who's hungry for dessert? I've got ice cream, chocolate pie, pecan pie, lemon pie, strawberries and whipped cream, cookies, candy, chocolate ..." Then: You sure you don't want some of this good ol' pie? Just a little piece??" Oh Granny ... I bet you're feeding all the folks in heaven now.
in the last scene， I think my grandma would never have allowed them to show up in their pyjamas :') you should be dressed properly for having breakfast 😂
The decorative soap was years old in my case. My great aunt had dolls everywhere, and religious paper pictures on the walls, someone was always looking at me lol you forget powder in the bathroom with the big puff lol
I had a great aunt who always had dusting powder in the "powder room." I remember trying to use it and then frantically trying to clean up when it got on everything 😂
My grandma has a portrait of the Virgin Mary in her house, though her flower shaped soaps run out pretty quick so have never had the 'old soap' sensation.
Priscilla Saravia Lol Same, my Grandparents are religious so my room at their house had a few bibles a cross and a small candle this I don’t mind I kinda feel safe at night knowing “god is watching” but on the other hand I have 400 creepy dolls and stuffed toys all staring at me, in the end I just put them on the floor.
I remember something that mystified me as a child was my great aunt in North Carolina had Pepsi and Coke you couldn't drink in glass bottles with the Tarheels and Wolfpack teams on them.
That Barbie doll plus crochet TP cover shot was laugh out loud funny. I used to see those but the Barbie version is over the top! Being a more practical person, I keep a bunch of rolls in the under sink cabinet at all times.
Question, why do gandma's always have a high bed!! I'm 5'5 and my grandma is 5'2ish yet somehow she is able to get on a bed that goes to MY waist. I think my grandma is lying about arthritis
I’ll admit I do the blanket thing too. Nothing is worse than being cold at someone else’s house so I give people a fan and a pile of blankets. I think I’m just a grandma at heart tbh. I like to make a guest room magical so people will visit me again. That grandma tried so hard.
LOL the decorative soap and towels is spot on. I just wound up using the decorative towels. I figured they’d dry, LOL. And the ancient concrete mattress, so true. They forgot the paper thin pillows, the scratchy blankets, and the racks of old magazines in the bathroom. My favorite was a magazine about the King Tut exhibition from 1979. It was still in that rack when she passed away two years ago.
I remember my Grandmas wood paneling vibrating with sound when she turned on Bonanza !!! To this day I turn up any westerns all the way . Loved spending the night at her house.😌
*Sees the crochet bathroom doll. Screams* Not enough dolls to be accurate (or teddy bears. Thousands upon thousands), also my grandmother had a grandfather clock (which you could hear ticking from literally anywhere in the house, and that was the quietest sound it made) that dinged on the quarter hour and rang an entire song on the hour ALL. NIGHT. LONG... but otherwise... yeah, pretty much.
Ahhhh! My gparents had a ticking clock too!! My other set of gparents had coocoo clocks! One time we visited we turned em off because they were driving us crazy!
@@hopecox , I have a cousin that made them stop the clock when he visited. For some reason it never occurred to me that there was an option besides enduring the thing. At least no cuckoo clocks. Small mercies.
My grandparents are antique dealers and have a vast collection of grandfather clocks they've amassed over the years. Every stinking time we go visit, my Papaw winds them ALL up and sets them on different times just to be a stinker. There's literally a clock chiming every five-ish minutes, all day and all night. 😆
God bless every gradma from every dimension. When my granny was alive, she used to feed me full even when I wasn't hungry ,and I was already an adult. I respected her a lot. Bless you in Heaven Granny!😇👵
What about the deceptive cookie tin? It's a 50/50 chance your getting gross cookies or it's filled with sewing supplies. Every Grandma has one of those.
@T. D My biscuit (as in cookie) tin has puppies on the cover and sewing stuff inside. I established it when I was about 30. But then I'm a gay male....
This channel and the creators are genius masterminds of southern tradition. Well done you guys and keep up the excellent work. Your channel is genuinely inspiring.
When I was little I would have to stay at my great aunts house a lot and she's a doll maker, and every doll that she doesn't sell she keeps. She has dozens of porcelain dolls in her house. She has a second living room that has ten dolls placed in a way that makes them look like they're having some sort of get together. Then she has a third bedroom her two of her dolls that have been laying on a bed in the same place for over 20 years. Then she has a glass case filled with dolls. The room I slept in had a huge doll right next to the bed that gave me nightmares. I could not stand to be alone in her house. I would make her sleep next to me, walk me to the bathroom, stay in the living room with me (the living room with the dolls and the living room without the dolls).
Oh my goodness! She sounds awesome! I have loved old fashion style glass and porcelain dolls since I was little! Expecially the ones styled after the Victorian era!
@@heartbreakerninja I will admit I use to be scared of them but as I've grown I've began to appreciate how well made they are. Some of them downright gorgeous. She made this one doll that's meant to look like a young native american girl except her eyes are purple. Kind of like a mix of Pocahontas and Elizabeth Taylor. It's a gorgeous doll
@@heartbreakerninja I thought I was the only one who loved dolls like this! I collect them too! I never have found them to be creepy and I actually find them comforting. I sew clothing and what not for them as well. It wasn't until I started being called weird for being a 20 something who loves and collects dolls that I realized it was a pretty common phobia.
@@esta1ful Who needs dolls? Who said anything about needing dolls??? It's called having a hobby and plenty of people do it. Maybe you should look up the definition of a hobby sometime.
My grandmother passed years ago, but my mother and I and a few other family members went to visit an elderly aunt and this video was exactly how it was. Except she was up at 4:30 making a fabulous breakfast. We all got up to eat breakfast and it was still dark as heck. She had a big doll on the bed that creeped me out.
It might be a generation thing or for looks my sister insisted in putting a 'nice shower curtain over the basic shower liner because she hates the look of a bare shower curtain. I remember my mom had actual cloth partial curtains with tassels over the guest bathtub (late '60s).
Damn, I gotta step up my grandma - game! My son, his wife and my grandbaby just visited, and they had to go out to breakfast every morning! LMAO Bad Granny!
@@woahtherebuddy2876 Oh, no way, lol! I have a potty mouth, and as my son is a sailor, so does he. I wouldn't cuss in front of my grandbaby, but I worry about what he'll pick up from his daddy! 🤣🤣😮
My Children were not allowed any ‘junk food’ or ‘snacks’ but now when they visit, plus the Grandchildren, all the stops are pulled out with me waiting on them hand and foot. I love it! I’m not a musty type of conventional Granny though: after I tell them they’re not dressed warmly enough and dispense the blankets (even knee blankets to watch TV on winter’s evening) I start the feeding Frenzy. They know where to come for good food, and plenty of it. Pies, casseroles, soups, puddings and custard, cakes and biscuits. Endless cups of tea or fresh coffee. No Wonder I am the designated Matriarch to cook Christmas Lunch, which I plan with military precision. We bought a table to seat 16 and as my parents and in-laws have sadly passed away, the Grandchildren are more than making up. I invite people who maybe don’t make Christmas lunch and I love it. The table is dressed with candles decorations silver placemats, all antique serving dishes and silver spoons. The pudding I made months in advance is put on to boil while lunch is being eaten, and flamed with brandy at the table. Condiments and jellies to serve with the roasts have previously been made in the Autumn from wild fruit. Later is tea and Christmas cake, by which time everyone’s comatose over sofas or beds. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a Gran to visit, but I know everyone likes it here! You’re all welcome! (But not at once!)
Ahh yes. Grannies breakfast. It's always worth those twighlight zone moments. I sure miss em. Thank God I learned how to cook from my elders. Have a good one y'all!
The part where she brings a tower of blankets is SO True
WITH the temperature set at 82 degrees.
My grandma lives in Phoenix and to save money in the summer she keeps her thermostat at 84 degrees or higher... I never go to her house
Visited my grandmother in Trinidad(Caribbean) she brought me a blanket because there was a cool breeze...it was 85deg😆. I miss her.😔
And they ALL stink of mildew - or baby powder.
lol
You forgot the part where Grandma asks how you slept, so you lie and say you slept fine.
My grandma would ask me 100 times how i slept lol
I slept like a log, Granny...😉
I do the same thing. It’s always hot at my grandmas house and the beds are as hard as a rock, the couches, are worse!!!!😳😳😂😂😂😂
With breakfast like that, I'd make that lie...
This is so true but I can never sleep
The decorative soap is priceless. It's been sitting there so long, that even if you try to use it... There's no lather.
Yes!!!!! That part. 🤣🤣😂😂😂
I was a little traumatized she used it... how dare she.
@@FayAlexGG hahaha! My grandma has those too... and the decorative towels.. why do people even have those?
Jesus Saves Love God
I love how she smelled it & had no reaction-the scent has been gone for years lol
The creaking floors and uncomfortable creaky beds are dead on. Mine also had a grandfather clock that chimed every half hour... 😑😂
Omg same
When I visited my grandma and step grandpa my step grandpa had like 10 grandfather clocks lol
OMG the clock... I'm still nostalgic for old cuckoo clocks.
My granddad had a clock that struck every quater hour
I have a grandfather clock that chimes every 15 mins 😬 it’s so annoying!!
“I think this memory foam has amnesia”😭😭😭
More so how there were Egyptian Hieroglyphs on the tag.. lol
I read this comment exact time this part came up😂
My grandparents have a bed in the guest room that is like two pieces of plywood with springs in the middle
I’ll let someone else like this comment because it’s at 999 🥰
One thousandth like
You forgot the “wait granny, what’s your wifi passcode?” “Oh sorry sweetie, we don’t have internet or service here”
And granny managed to live all those years!😂. Food for thought.
or reading it off an ancient sticky note that took 20 minutes to find
Or “I’m sorry sweetie, but I forgot the passcode.” ‘Looks at passcode on note’ Passcode: eFgdjtbd758hw9
Maybe being almost 38 has a different perspective but my grandma that I still had until last year, I never expected her to have wifi. We got her a computer in the 1990s. She tried to use it, got pissed and turned it off. It sat in the corner with a special cover she'd made to put over it so it wouldn't get dusty. Never to be used again.
Mine would have said "my what"? Lol
The other great thing about grandma's house is that it has a seemingly endless supply of candy!
Ian Miller Hard Candy, bleech
Thats not just the south that is everywhere
@@kingbob851 definitely everywhere, I'm not even from the south!
Ian Miller yea but it’s always that hard, nasty candy. They never have any of the good stuff. At least not when I was growing up.
True!!!
“I think this memory foam has amnesia!”
I literally started dying laughing!
Same lol
My grandmother had a horsehair sofa! Try sitting on that when you are
a kid wearing shorts! Ouch!
They forgot the part where granny starts vacuuming at 4:30 am.....
" Oh, I thought you were awake!"
🙄
You're brave for even saying anything. You're just supposed to pretend to still be asleep 😂
Like yes
@@JustSheaShea Mine would remove the sheets and pillowcases at 5am even if you was still in the bed
At least you guys can see your grandma..
Wow this kids are spoiled…
"How old is this thing?" *sees heiroglyphics* "How old is granny???"
My sides still hurt from laughing so much. And of course, we have all experienced...
HALLELUJAH! Hallelujah. Halleluhah.
Sadly, my grandmother couldn't cook so I never got that moment when I woke up. She thought that high is the best and only temperature on which to cook things because it's faster. There was no arguing with her.
@@alsinakiria Oh, I'm so sorry that you went through that trauma, honey.
Grandma had the same bed and mattress made with horse hair.
all hand made too, yum!
ya'll have obviously never met my grandma from the north. she grew up in the great depression (and apparently still thinks its going on).... no hallelulah moments there.... she FREEZES MILK. (and everything else too) she's more apt to serve the biscuits she snuck home in her purse from a restaurant someone else took her to (oh, she'd never pay to go out to eat herself!) last year that have been waiting in the freezer for a special occasion like breakfast with the fam. lol
Me: **practically sweating under an electric blanket**
Big Momma: **carrying more blankets** Is you warm enough?
Yve you’re not hot enough until you are the tempt of a thanksgiving turkey
I live with my 90 year old grandmother and I’ll walk through the unventilated house sweating to death and get lectured for not wearing enough clothing because I should be “cold”. 🥲
toss some carrots in while you're at it grandma.
And that’s where I go “yes I’m about to catch on fire. Why don’t you turn a fan on or something?”
@@BananaGrace uhh no she should be hot 🙄🙄
My Grandma’s bathroom always smelled like Ivory soap, a fragrance I love to this day. Her kitchen smelled like delicious pot roast and rhubarb. She had a huge screened in porch where we could sleep on hot nights or play on when it rained. Grandma’s house was so close to Heaven even if it was in Illinois; nobody’s perfect.😊
For my entire existence, my grandma used the same dish soap. I've always associated the smell with her. Then one day, when I was in my late 20's, I went to visit her and she had a different dish soap. It really threw me for a loop.
Ivory soap is the best! It truly is 99.9 % pure soap. When my husband was in the hospital for serious infections, the wound nurse suggested Ivory for cleaning his wounds. I’m a big fan now.
My grandparents had lava pumice soap, had a kitchen that was remodeled in the 1960’s with brown appliances, had an enclosed upper porch that was popular with us grandchildren, had toys in their basement and one year, us grandchildren played hide and go seek in the dark in the basement while the grownups played board games upstairs one thanksgiving
Oh those decorative soaps....if you need to replace that one you used, my granny can send you some. They are pre-loaded with dust.
😂😂😂😂
At first I thought they were circus peanuts 😂
Like she said, she can get some more at the soap florist!
😂😂😂
Literally a whole plastic bag, FULL. Like where you get that?

How old is granny?
When I used to spend the night with my great-grannie she would always put me in the room where she kept her dolls. I could’ve swore one night when I was 10 that I saw one of those dolls turn it’s head to look at me. I grabbed my blanket and pillow and ran to sleep on the couch in the living room. The next morning I told her I walked there in my sleep. I didn’t want her to feel bad for putting me in a room full of haunted dolls lol.
@Taetum Demel in my grandma's house there's a lot of old music boxes, I love them, specially a ballerina one
That is so funny!
The cushion toilet and tp doll were way too accurate
My Texas aunt had a furry seat cover. I would just "hover" rather than sit on it.
My mom crocheted a big clown face tp cover.

A big Southern breakfast and the Hallelujah Chorus starts playing - I died laughing.
That's not a big southern breakfast. Where's the milk/buttermilk? Ham? Sausage gravy? Creamed chipped beef? Muffins or sweet breads? Hotcakes? That's what some advertiser thinks a real southern breakfast looks like...
@@AlbredaWelde I know you're talking, but all I can think about is biscuits.
@@AlbredaWelde creamed chipped beef isn't Southern.
@@AlbredaWelde What is creamed chipped beef? I guess self explanatory.

Don't forget everything smelling musty yet slightly perfumed! Lol! I miss my Granny and Papa, thanks for the memories!
My mamaw on Dad's side smelled of roses all the time. All throughout house because of her hand cream
"Musty yet slightly perfumed" 😂😂 It's so accurate, though. I'll never forget their signature colognes (and cigarette brand)
I miss mine too!!! *Sniff*
That's exactly the snail I was thinking of. Plus at my Grandma and Grandpa's house they had cedar paneling everywhere so there was definitely a hint of cedar to everything.
@@MichaelRabbitBass3 Ah yes, the smell of cedar!
The grandma's homemade breakfast is absolutely 100% perfect!! Loved this video!!
Lol the creeky floors, once again you nailed it....along with the museum for pooping lol!
My step mom and dad's apt is like a museum or like a luxury hotel sweet it kinda anorion when I sleepd over
If only she had the candy dish with the old butterscotch and peppermints sticking together, now that would have been classic lol!!!

@@kylethomas3477 butterscotch and mints were reserved for church lol
Lol!!! Exactly definitely for church!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
My grandma always had my poptarts, toaster strudels, chicken nuggets and chocolate milk & blankets stocked up for when I came for the weekends lol. She made my childhood and teen years so magical. Lost her when I was 20. I'm 26 now and still cry out for her sometimes when I'm feeling really down 😭
I lost my Nanny last year. Tomorrow will actually be a whole year she’s been gone. I know how you feel, she lived close by and when I was younger I was almost always at her house on the weekends. Now my Nana on the other hand lives in Texas so I unfortunately don’t get to see her that often. But boy I sure treasure her extra now after losing one grandma😓. Not to mention we also lost Papa (Nana’s husband) in March of last year as well💔
😢bet she loved you over!
When I was a child, my Grandma told me that we "don't lose grandparents, they just gain their wings, relocate, and keep on looking out for us from above". Your Grandma sounds amazing - I've no doubt she's doing her best to watch over you, especially on the days when you miss her most 💕
Sending heartfelt condolences 💖
Precious memories❤
I'm over 60 and my grandmother died when I was 23. I loved her so much and have great memories of her. I still miss her to this day and was just talking about her this week. Used to go lay on her grave and cry in the . middle of the night. Not so long ago.
Love them while they're here!
My grandma will be 100 on the 29th of May. She is the sweetest person I know. Her body is very fragile now but by er spirit is strong as ever. Always ready for a good laugh. I Love you Grandma. I'm 59 years old and still have a Grandmother Wow.
I feel so Blessed.
work hard Similar story here-my paternal grandmother is 99, and other than severe macular degeneration age still has all her oars in the water! I love her with all my heart, and I hope she makes it to 100!
My birthday is on May 29 also 💜
You are so lucky. My grandma died when I was in my 30’s. I miss her so much.
Penelope Pitstop My maternal grandmother died when I was 15 after six years of declining physical health and dementia on top of that, so having seen that extreme I definitely count my paternal grandmother as one of the very lucky ones!
I don’t have either of my grandfathers either-my maternal grandfather died before my parents got married, and my paternal grandfather died 19 years ago (our older daughter is named after him).
Oh ya
I miss my grandma sooo much!!! 😢 I used to stay there every Friday night. I loved it! She cooked so good, and we always watched tv together. No spooky dolls or decorated bathrooms. Just 100% pure love. She died when I was 20 yrs old. I miss her every day! To all the lucky grandkids who have living grandparents, love them every day and never forget to tell them how much you love them.
this is so sweet! and I often tell millenials that I know they don't understand this but the longer they hold having kids, the less chance they have of being grandparents themselves. The joy i had watching my mum become a granny was so special, I'm looking forward to one day sharing that time with my own daughters.
Amen to this! My precious grandma left me in 2010 and I miss her so very much 😢 💔
My grandparents always had their door unlocked when we would go visit them and their tv would always be on if they were home
“This isn’t a bathroom, it’s a museum, for pooping” 🤣😂 I laughed to hard
I almost peed my pants!
Same
@@The_Cute_Raccoon my grandma's bathroom has a pork with a chef costume it's pretty funny
@@thewondersofawesometv1414 😂
Loved the air leaving the cushioned toilet seat as she sat. ROFL
Don’t ever use the looking at soap or the looking at towels!!! 😟
Or Grandma will get out the switch... Or if she's really mad, the cast iron skillet!!!
@@rikiforever420
My grandmother had a cast iron skillet,
It was huge,
That sucker weighed
The same as a 2 year old,
It was I swear 100 years old,
But some of the best
Bacon,biscuits,ham,
Gravy,pancakes came from that thing,
The only other person allowed to touch it,
Was granddad,
He like to cook deer and elk venison in it,
He make his cornbread too,
And his coal miner water biscuits,
Squirrel Gravy,
I'm surprised me and my cousins not the size of freaking houses now ,
One rule in my grandparents house,
You don't leave hungry,
Very rarely there were left overs,
😁
One time when I was little, I used all the fancy soaps in the bathroom and I got in so much trouble
The trick is, use the soap from the very bottom of the pile, dry it out then put it back under the others. Use the back of the non-corded layer of towel to dry hands then be sure it’s still folded before leaving powder room.

Sorry for your loss
I just lost mine a month ago. Honestly, I don’t know how I’m going to feel when someone buys her house. My Pawpaw built the house himself. No one else has lived there. I live right next door.
I lost my dad's mom about 3 years ago and I lost my mom's dad 5 years ago but I still have my mom's mom and a great aunt and I agree it's the best 👌
I love how this was probably just filmed in some granys house without changing anything
lol
Still dream of granny's cooking. Nothing ever tasted that good!
It was all the love she put into making it thats what I tell myself.
@@ifitsnotbrokenfixit1193 And butter!
OMG truth!! Every thing from garden, wake up to the pressure cooker full of fresh green beans 🤗. Cream corn, fresh tomatoes and Vidalia onions. Cornbread, morning homemade scratch biscuits and bacon. 🤤🤤🤤
Yessss!!! Everything picked fresh from the garden: tomatoes, cabbage, string beans, collard greens, bell peppers, zucchini, etc. What I wouldn’t do to turn back the hands of time 20 years... I’d love to be sitting in my grandma’s kitchen chatting away while she made chicken and dumplings, peach cobbler, fried chicken, et al.

1:51 “this isn’t a bathroom it’s a museum for pooping” bruh I laughed hard at that part
Lol
@onanidaily no, more like a museum of bathrooms.
Yes, I was in the 70s exhibit, the one covered in glass.
This is actually how every summer goes when my family visits my grandparents, from
the bathrooms and the bedroom to the biscuits and gravy in the mornings. My grandma died last year and my grandpa hasn’t been the same and we’ve yet to visit him, but I hope we can still make memories without her physical presence. I love you so much, Grandma Betty❤️
You should visit him, he probably needs biscuits and gravy too
@Jess Stone yeah they were meant to be beautiful. i love my grandparents' house too
Ah got my right in the feels. my Gran was named Betty-Ann. I miss her every day.
Try to visit and call as often as you can, when you've been married for so many years you don't know who you are anymore without your spouse, he's probably very lonely
lol, my grandparents house in Peru looks the exact same and the bed covers are made of feathers so when I sleep I feel all of these feathers and some end up on me, and everything like EVERYTHING is decorative, their house is filled with ceramic, old rusty furniture, paintings, and tiles, like SO MANY TILES
Completely hilarious, and all true....yet my heart breaks as I would give almost anything to just spend one more night at Grandma's house. If you've got one still, enjoy her while she's here!!
Amen!
Thats so true!
This has encouraged me to spend more time with my grandma!! :')
My grandma made the best homemade sourdough biscuits, bacon gravy, and despite her constantly apologizing for this or that “mistake” in her cooking, those breakfasts were perfect and are some of my fondest memories. She’d slather bacon grease on stale breads to feed the raccoons just outside the screened porch so we could watch them while we ate our breakfast. Even now, 23 years after my last breakfast in her house, I am reminded just how much I miss her and how precious those times were. Thank you.
"Please be toilet paper"😂 This was so accurate and hilarious!
😂❤
Those horrible things were in all of my relatives' homes! Thank goodness my mom did not knit!
@@magicalomaha2804 most aren't knitted.
@@magicalomaha2804 my granny had a doll face with knitting all around it, I guess like flower pedals? Anyway that thing creeped us out big time! I think that's why she hung it up right next to her canning room/celler, to keep us kids out. Grandpa would also tell us there was an alligator back there lol so that room was well protected from children, we scooted down the stairs on our butts instead lol
@@kohakuaiko some were knitted though or crocheted I definitely remember the knitted ones in not only my grandparents homes but a lot of older peoples homes we visited when I was growing up
Man I wished I could spend a day in my grandparents house again. I sure do miss them. Even the cushion toilet seat with a tear that pitched my butt. Now I'm a grandma, I hope I'm half as good as they were. My grandparents loved me and spoilt me rotten lol.
The spirit behind this short video is very loving. My "granny" was not southern. She was from rural northern Indiana. She too was a lady through and through. She ran a proper household replete with the lovely (and seemingly) "no touch soap and hand towels." She had the disguised extra (and most merciful!) roll of emergency toilet paper. She had the old yet comfortable mattresses once you settled in for the night. She also had sweets in candy dishes stashed all throughout the house. Martha Jane's house smelled faintly of lavender, always "clean," and otherwise I guess I have to say, it simply smelled of good peaceful living and regular ways and in the end, "love," as I believe it is meant to be. I lost my dear friend (my lovely grandma) five years ago this month. Were she to be living today, she would be looking forward to celebrating her 99th birthday early this June in 2019.
My grandmother, Martha Jane, was born in June of 1920. I will never forget her. She taught me how to appreciate, how to encourage, how to just give up and give thanks and be humble when giving thanks to our Lord. This video clip here is a tourist advert for visiting Vicksburg, Mississippi. I once visited Jackson, MS, and was invited to go to nearby Vicksburg on an outing. I declined at the time. Some day I would love to go back and visit again even though I don't know a soul there in MS. However, I believe I learned perhaps from now on what I need to know from my lovely grandma.
God bless those who put together this short video. It's very special, very relatable across time and space and culture. Good job!
-Tom from Michigan
This is very thoughtful.. when I blow out my candles in June I will dedicate them to her.. Thank you for making my day..
tejb This made my heart happy 😌♥️
So glad, sweetie, that we could make this small connection here and that your heart was made happy. ♥️ -Tom
Hi Liberty. I was born in Indianapolis. Then we moved to Michigan when I was only five years old. Then we moved to Missouri a little later where we lived for almost ten years. Then we moved to Delaware way over on the east coast, and then again we moved back to Michigan!
My wonderful dad (such a kind man, now 83 years old) was a Chrysler Corp. executive who never, ever, forgot about his wife and kids.
In the meantime, my former wife and I fell in love and moved away back to northern Indiana (Marion) where we had our lovely son Matt in early 2000. Such long stories here, I guess. Dear son Matt is now 19 and doing great, and Pam and I after many years remain friends.
Just sharing here. -Have some hugs from Tom :-)
Hi from Monroe!! Beautiful story
Don't forget get about the old fashioned candy cemented in her fancy candy dish. As a kid I really wanted to eat it but I was never strong enough to break a piece free😥

@@Cellardoorable99 exactly, you know what I'm talking about.
“Nope you’re definitely going to murder me in my sleep” 😂 love that ❤️

Yes! My papa(grandma) had three creepy porcelain dolls in the den which is now my room after we moved in and because there were still things that need to be unpacked the dolls we’re in my room I didn’t sleep the whole night those things were creepy as heck I honestly thought they were going to murder me
Just be happy it not a painting
Yeah dolls and clowns are a huge no no for me
Am I the only one who usually doesn't find dolls creepy like at all.
Dear grans...I miss you both terribly. How I remember the fun times over night at your houses, and the special ways you both made me feel. I'm a grandpa now and know first-hand how you felt. Thank you for demonstrating love in a million ways, and investing your time into your grandchildren.
I think we can all confirm this is 100% TRUE!!
99% For those 1% who have a bad grandma, and I mean seriously when I say bad. I'm raising my hand, lol.
Yes girl
98% for those who don't see they grandparents about 7 ages ago, AKA me
Meh close to it
Yall left off the tomato gravy for those biscuits! 🤤
I don't know if the doll is gonna murder him but she's definitely judging him.
I was watching to see if it had turned back while they were sleeping!😂😂

Wendi Jackson not whilst sleeping, but at 2:00, I’m quite sure it turned back. Eek!

I was blessed to have my Grandmother till she was 105...and I was 55 with grandchildren of my own. Sweet to go visit multiple generations all in one visit. The soap thing really got me. You didn't know whether or not to use one of those little decorative soaps, so we just let it sit through the 60's, 70's and all up till 2010 when she died. Also, my Grandmother used to stock the guest bath with white towels. My wife would always tell me to 'just wipe my hands on my jeans' so I wouldn't mess up my Grandmother's towels. Gotta love it.
The mattress should've still had the plastic wrap on it to protect it.

Lol sew tru
My great grandparents moved to NorCal from Louisiana for my mom and grandma. They found the warmest place they could and still have the fire going all year long. 80-90 degrees outside? “It’s a little chilly. Will you help me with the firewood?” I miss them to tears. She was the first person to let me cut with a sharp knife. We made banana pudding. I can still smell it and the coffee they always had.

My grandmother has the opposite problem. She always has the AC running. I had to ask her for an extra blanket when I stayed over.
Mine never turned the AC on and I always had to leave the house with a sweater even in the summer! Ohhh you should’ve seen once I had babies, they had to be covered like it was Alaska! 😆

Thank you. One of my grandmothers died when my dad was only 5, so I never met her. The other died in 2015. And I lost my mom in 2017. Both grandfathers are dead too. But, I still have my dad. The video reminds me more of my great grandmother's house than my grandma's house. I would totally sell my house and buy hers if it was on the market. I loved how that house was laid out. I would probably have to do a decorative bathroom just like she had.

This is the truest thing ever- My grandma's house from the blankets, to the dolls by the bed, to the creaky floors. And the breakfast of course.
Where do they keep all those blankets? Where did they come from?

my grandma died when I was 12 and I'm still 12. We just gotta get through the pain
Your experience visiting with Grandma was a little different that mine. Keeping in mind most of my visits were when I was quite young and over Christmas vacation. Central Kentucky can be a cold place in the winter. The trip to the bathroom required putting on a coat and walking through the snow to the little building with the door that had the crescent moon cut out. As to more blankets, yes please. Could I get another? What really kept you warm was the two of there cousins that shared the bed. The Franklin stove tried to heat the whole house. On the other hand, the breakfast was exactly the same. Biscuits with fresh butter and sorghum molasses or black raspberry jam. And, of course, at dinner time, 'nanner pudding!
@tony borelli some people still have to deal with that today or just choose too. Especially deep rural areas
My great grandparents house was that way. They only had a fireplace for heat and running water in the kitchen. We took baths in a wash tub and went to the out house. That was in the 70's.
sorry bout your legs...thats gold right there
What I would give to go to my grandma's house one more time 😭❤️❤️❤️
Heather Monce same
Heather Monce Yes
Amen!
Me too. Mine died when I was 22, and she was great. I would love to eat some of her food right now. She taught me recipes while she was still here, but it’s not the same. She made everything she cooked much better with grandma magic.
Me too this hit hard today it’s been two weeks since she died and we just got rid of her apartment that she moved to after her husband died
Also:
Granny- you hungry hunny?
Me- nah grams I just ate before I got here.
Granny- hunny are you sure. It wont take me long to fix something.
Me- yeah I'm sure grams, it's ok.
Granny- now hunny it's no problem just let me go fix you a sandwich.
Me- I'm sure grams. I'm really not hungry
Granny- I have lunch meat sweetie, lemme fix you something to eat.

Granny- 😀😁 Good hunny I knew you were hungry, it wont take me but just a minute my sweet girl.
At granny's house, you're always hungry. ❤
Yes! Force fed so much I used to give it to my dog when I thought gramma wasn't looking. Poor little fat Chihuahua named Tootsie. Last month I was cooking for Gramma & tried to force feed her, mimicking her, she told me "go on outta my face with that!" I said "Gramma, I've been waiting my whole life to force feed you" She laughed & said "You gave my good cooking to Tootsie when YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING" LOL! Nothing I could say to that.
Sounds Minnesotan...lol.
Yes!!😂
My grandma would have family dinners and she literally COULD NOT stay in her chair to eat. She was always up going "You want some more ham/chicken/cornbread/potato salad/black eyed peas/turnip greens .... How about some more sweet tea?"
Then five minutes later: "Who's hungry for dessert? I've got ice cream, chocolate pie, pecan pie, lemon pie, strawberries and whipped cream, cookies, candy, chocolate ..."
Then: You sure you don't want some of this good ol' pie? Just a little piece??"
Oh Granny ... I bet you're feeding all the folks in heaven now.
C&D Vlogs lol so accurate
Love this!! The tossing and turning, the "decorative bathroom", the creaky floor!!

That toilet paper Barbie doll brought back memories! As did that crocheted blanket on top of the stack that Granny handed him.
The decorative soap was years old in my case. My great aunt had dolls everywhere, and religious paper pictures on the walls, someone was always looking at me lol you forget powder in the bathroom with the big puff lol
I had a great aunt who always had dusting powder in the "powder room." I remember trying to use it and then frantically trying to clean up when it got on everything 😂
Decorative soaps use to get on my nerve
My grandma has a portrait of the Virgin Mary in her house, though her flower shaped soaps run out pretty quick so have never had the 'old soap' sensation.
Priscilla Saravia Lol Same, my Grandparents are religious so my room at their house had a few bibles a cross and a small candle this I don’t mind I kinda feel safe at night knowing “god is watching” but on the other hand I have 400 creepy dolls and stuffed toys all staring at me, in the end I just put them on the floor.
I remember something that mystified me as a child was my great aunt in North Carolina had Pepsi and Coke you couldn't drink in glass bottles with the Tarheels and Wolfpack teams on them.
I think this video is relatable on some level to everyone, Southern or not.
It’s so well done. You guys are great
I live with my grandma. I have for 10 years I’m 13 now.
“Even the memory foam has amnesia” 😂
Woah thats weird I'm 13 and I've lived with my grandma for 10 years too....😂 since I was 3

The angelic music was ON POINT. Exactly how I feel when I walk in on such a beautiful sight.
Why is the accuracy level like 1000%? 😂
Desirae Heider This is my husband and I when we visit his mom’s house! 😂
I live in Ohio but my grandma is from West Virginia. I know it’s not technically the south but it was still so accurate😂

I'm not British I'm black and it's TRUE!!! it must of been a phenomenon amongst old people period no matter the race!! 😂😂😂😂😂
That Barbie doll plus crochet TP cover shot was laugh out loud funny. I used to see those but the Barbie version is over the top! Being a more practical person, I keep a bunch of rolls in the under sink cabinet at all times.
My bubbie had one on the back on the toilet. And yes the floor on the way to the bathroom creaked.
It seems was a Mode on decoration Many years ago in México. Mi abuela (grandma) do it the same things on the bathroom.
Question, why do gandma's always have a high bed!! I'm 5'5 and my grandma is 5'2ish yet somehow she is able to get on a bed that goes to MY waist. I think my grandma is lying about arthritis
Lol hilarious! 😂😂😂
I know, right? And those beds are always piled high with pillows, cushions and linen. I’m surprised it never reached the ceiling
And chenille bedspreads
A ladder? Lol
lol my grandmother has a super tall bed. She had a stepping stool lol
I’ll admit I do the blanket thing too. Nothing is worse than being cold at someone else’s house so I give people a fan and a pile of blankets. I think I’m just a grandma at heart tbh. I like to make a guest room magical so people will visit me again. That grandma tried so hard.
Hi 👋 how are you doing?
“How old is this?...how old is grannie?” I’m dead
And that ending, that ending right there, is why EVERYBODY loves their grandma.
"Nope. You're definitely going to murder me in my sleep." 🥃
And then he still moved to the other side of the bed! 😂
LOL the decorative soap and towels is spot on. I just wound up using the decorative towels. I figured they’d dry, LOL. And the ancient concrete mattress, so true. They forgot the paper thin pillows, the scratchy blankets, and the racks of old magazines in the bathroom. My favorite was a magazine about the King Tut exhibition from 1979. It was still in that rack when she passed away two years ago.
"I know you're talking but all I can think about is biscuits" 😂
I remember my Grandmas wood paneling vibrating with sound when she turned on Bonanza !!! To this day I turn up any westerns all the way . Loved spending the night at her house.😌
*Sees the crochet bathroom doll. Screams*
Not enough dolls to be accurate (or teddy bears. Thousands upon thousands), also my grandmother had a grandfather clock (which you could hear ticking from literally anywhere in the house, and that was the quietest sound it made) that dinged on the quarter hour and rang an entire song on the hour ALL. NIGHT. LONG... but otherwise... yeah, pretty much.
Ahhhh! My gparents had a ticking clock too!! My other set of gparents had coocoo clocks! One time we visited we turned em off because they were driving us crazy!
@@hopecox , I have a cousin that made them stop the clock when he visited. For some reason it never occurred to me that there was an option besides enduring the thing.
At least no cuckoo clocks. Small mercies.
Zara Bari lol I’m dying!!!
My grandparents are antique dealers and have a vast collection of grandfather clocks they've amassed over the years. Every stinking time we go visit, my Papaw winds them ALL up and sets them on different times just to be a stinker. There's literally a clock chiming every five-ish minutes, all day and all night. 😆
My grandma has a gran father clock as well and whenever I’m anywhere by myself I get so scared
Oh, this brings back memories, the blankets (and quilts), my grandmother's BIG meals- everything homegrown or pasture raised! You folks nailed it‼️
They forgot that Granny doesn't allow PJs at the table!!!🤣🤣🤣
They also didn't make their bed!
I was actually thinking the same! My mom made us get dressed before breakfast at the grandparents!
Or the grandma that whacks you with a spoon for using your left hand(speaking from experience)
All I could hear was "get dressed! and wash your hands before you eat, you're not a hoodlum"
Yep. You had to be dressed.
God bless every gradma from every dimension. When my granny was alive, she used to feed me full even when I wasn't hungry ,and I was already an adult. I respected her a lot.
Bless you in Heaven Granny!😇👵
♥Always tryna feed us when we full and put extra clothes on when we already warm♥
Well bless your heart
@@georgia8592 that's granny for ya. They are our second mother.
@@georgia8592 right!😉😆😁
What about the deceptive cookie tin? It's a 50/50 chance your getting gross cookies or it's filled with sewing supplies. Every Grandma has one of those.
True, unfortunately my grandma's is just sewing needles lol
I got a handful of cooking grease!
@T. D My biscuit (as in cookie) tin has puppies on the cover and sewing stuff inside. I established it when I was about 30. But then I'm a gay male....
So true. In my case my grandmother's cookie tins are full of old photos.
@@lillym5908 my grandma didn't even know how to sew and she had a tin of needles
This channel and the creators are genius masterminds of southern tradition. Well done you guys and keep up the excellent work. Your channel is genuinely inspiring.
When I was little I would have to stay at my great aunts house a lot and she's a doll maker, and every doll that she doesn't sell she keeps. She has dozens of porcelain dolls in her house. She has a second living room that has ten dolls placed in a way that makes them look like they're having some sort of get together. Then she has a third bedroom her two of her dolls that have been laying on a bed in the same place for over 20 years. Then she has a glass case filled with dolls. The room I slept in had a huge doll right next to the bed that gave me nightmares. I could not stand to be alone in her house. I would make her sleep next to me, walk me to the bathroom, stay in the living room with me (the living room with the dolls and the living room without the dolls).
Oh my goodness! She sounds awesome! I have loved old fashion style glass and porcelain dolls since I was little! Expecially the ones styled after the Victorian era!
@@heartbreakerninja I will admit I use to be scared of them but as I've grown I've began to appreciate how well made they are. Some of them downright gorgeous. She made this one doll that's meant to look like a young native american girl except her eyes are purple. Kind of like a mix of Pocahontas and Elizabeth Taylor. It's a gorgeous doll
@@heartbreakerninja I thought I was the only one who loved dolls like this! I collect them too! I never have found them to be creepy and I actually find them comforting. I sew clothing and what not for them as well. It wasn't until I started being called weird for being a 20 something who loves and collects dolls that I realized it was a pretty common phobia.
In my opinion, a grown woman who needs dolls has a serious mental issue. You’re supposed to grow our of this phase.
@@esta1ful Who needs dolls? Who said anything about needing dolls??? It's called having a hobby and plenty of people do it. Maybe you should look up the definition of a hobby sometime.
Y'all forgot about the furniture that's just for show in that room where you can't wear shoes.
Yup lol... my grammas formal area was white and cobalt blu and it was only for guests to come and sit to take pictures that’s it. Lmao
And the couch still got the plastic on it
@@miked51476 And the lamp shade.
Covered in plastic that no one touched.
We kids weren’t allowed in the living room, with the plastic covered furniture.
This was my house cause my grandmother raised me! God, I miss that woman!
My grandmother passed years ago, but my mother and I and a few other family members went to visit an elderly aunt and this video was exactly how it was. Except she was up at 4:30 making a fabulous breakfast. We all got up to eat breakfast and it was still dark as heck. She had a big doll on the bed that creeped me out.
I loved my great grandmother's foam seat it was always warm. Plus what is up with elders and random dolls around the house.
They miss having kids around......sad truth......
My grandma has like 200! We finally encouraged her to move them out of the guest room and into her room
That bathroom was entirely too accurate 😂 you forgot the frilly curtains over the actual shower curtain though.
Taylor B. My grandma made all her frilly curtains too
It might be a generation thing or for looks my sister insisted in putting a 'nice shower curtain over the basic shower liner because she hates the look of a bare shower curtain. I remember my mom had actual cloth partial curtains with tassels over the guest bathtub (late '60s).
Damn, I gotta step up my grandma - game! My son, his wife and my grandbaby just visited, and they had to go out to breakfast every morning! LMAO
Bad Granny!
You should know that grandma's always have a jar of cookies.
If you are actually a grandma I love how you use words like damn and lmao teach my grandma please 😂
@@woahtherebuddy2876 Oh, no way, lol! I have a potty mouth, and as my son is a sailor, so does he. I wouldn't cuss in front of my grandbaby, but I worry about what he'll pick up from his daddy! 🤣🤣😮
@@Starmadien2019 I will remember that for their next visit!
blowinbubbles yeah my grandma and mom probably do to, they probably don’t use it around me either 😂
Oh, and you get up at 7:00 and Grandma says, “ I let you sleep late.”
You nailed it on everything! Especially the part where she brings in mountains of blankets when you’re already melting 😬😂
I swear, that's exactly how my Grandparent's house was in Tennessee. Everything in this video. Everything.😂😂🤗
Yuo yup! Shout out to Tennessee
I’m in East Tennessee and this is too accurate.The only thing they don’t have is the toilet paper doll
Great. Now I'm hungry AND missing my grandmas, lol!!
Goody Me to!!
Haha Rachel B!!
My Children were not allowed any ‘junk food’ or ‘snacks’ but now when they visit, plus the Grandchildren, all the stops are pulled out with me waiting on them hand and foot. I love it! I’m not a musty type of conventional Granny though: after I tell them they’re not dressed warmly enough and dispense the blankets (even knee blankets to watch TV on winter’s evening) I start the feeding Frenzy. They know where to come for good food, and plenty of it. Pies, casseroles, soups, puddings and custard, cakes and biscuits. Endless cups of tea or fresh coffee. No Wonder I am the designated Matriarch to cook Christmas Lunch, which I plan with military precision. We bought a table to seat 16 and as my parents and in-laws have sadly passed away, the Grandchildren are more than making up. I invite people who maybe don’t make Christmas lunch and I love it. The table is dressed with candles decorations silver placemats, all antique serving dishes and silver spoons. The pudding I made months in advance is put on to boil while lunch is being eaten, and flamed with brandy at the table. Condiments and jellies to serve with the roasts have previously been made in the Autumn from wild fruit. Later is tea and Christmas cake, by which time everyone’s comatose over sofas or beds. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a Gran to visit, but I know everyone likes it here! You’re all welcome! (But not at once!)
I hate when people have nothing but decorative towels in their bathroom.
“No, no, no. Those towels are decorative, those too. Use the paper towels in the kitchen.”
If I'm a guest I use the towels put out
Just use the side that won't show.
I use them. I just assume they don’t want them used if they have them out 😂
Billy my grandson asked me “ Grammy, what’s the thing about show towels? Why do women like show towels??
Ahh yes. Grannies breakfast. It's always worth those twighlight zone moments. I sure miss em. Thank God I learned how to cook from my elders. Have a good one y'all!
You don't need no alarm clock when there are biscuits and gravy cooking. 😋
It makes it all worthwhile because you know everything was done with love
Hello how’re you doing?
