I think my Mom was of the same school as yours, since I heard many of the same ones you did!<BR/>I also heard, "don't crack your knuckles or no man will ever get a ring on your finger" (fooled her!)<BR/>and my favorite (which I also passed to my kids)<BR/> "Don't swallow your gum or your toes will stick together!!"<BR/>fun meme!!<BR/>xoSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00024132046092264711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-69514451002303687622007-08-07T19:18:00.000-07:002007-08-07T19:18:00.000-07:00Now THAT is a difficult meme, I don't think I'll t...Now THAT is a difficult meme, I don't think I'll try it myself. But your peas and beets entries reminded me of something my mother insisted on making when we were sick: chicken soup (so far so good) but with an egg broken into it and swirled around, creating, snotty looking strands to gag on. I loved the chicken soup, I loved eggs, so why couldn't I have had them separately? Boy, that was dredged up from a long time ago, and I am surprised I still feel resentful!Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04456736523331076619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-51371623507554904082007-08-07T19:13:00.000-07:002007-08-07T19:13:00.000-07:00I think that the lies my mom told were lies of omi...I think that the lies my mom told were lies of omission and who knows how many of those she told. LOL! I did find one out though... all my life I was told that my grandmother was an only child and in fact she was the only child that her parents ever had....together. It seems that her father had a son by his first marriage though. My mom didn't bother to tell me that...even when I was researching the family tree because she didn't think it mattered.<BR/><BR/>I think for the most part my mom was pretty truthful.Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2403846791673474817.post-2002003815251727182007-08-07T18:14:00.000-07:002007-08-07T18:14:00.000-07:00I got tagged with this one myself and I am having ...I got tagged with this one myself and I am having one tough time with it! My mother never lied to me that I can remember as it's just not in her nature to do so! <BR/><BR/>This one is going to call from some major creativity on my part but that may take some time! <BR/><BR/>I thought that you did a lovely job!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05698969349369789642noreply@blogger.com
