    My grandma would tell us "go get your lesson baby," that meant do your homework.
    And "cover yo ches up. It's cold outside."
    And don't dare take a newborn baby out of the house. A baby under 3 months wasn't supposed to leave the house.
    Taking baths with dishwashing liquid instead of bubble bath.
    My grandmother didn't cook, but loved her some Piccadilly.

      Yes! Get your lesson! Classic line. I might have to carry that one on to my own kids when I have them

      My mom did not let me take my baby to church until he was 12 weeks old. 🤦🏾‍♀️ And then when he got to church, my Pastor's wife was the body guard over him making sure people stood about 3 yardsticks away to see him... this was 11 years ago. 😂🤦🏾‍♀️

      @Aqueelah Barrie My grandma would say ''yo chess out'' anytime you had anything on with a V-neck! Even in 90 degree weather. When we got older' we would say this back to her, she couldn't help but cackle. This was and is a THING to say in my family.

    ( lays the red wrench on the table”.
    Granma : “ Yea, that’s pretty .” 😆☺️😂
