It's a Family Affair
Time to tell more of my story. My wife, Ella Mae is also a cook and 'house mom' @ a fraternity and she also is a 'house mom' @ a sorority. We actually work within 3 blocks of each other. Her sorority position does incur sleeping their every night, 7 days a week. It makes for a unique relationship as we are married going on 41 years and have always worked side by side. As I stated in my last post, I cooked for a sorority and yes, it is the one she is @ now. For 2 years we were considered 'Mom & Pop' since we were both on board their. The stories we could tell and laughs that we had, made for some interesting times. I decided it was time for me to make a change and after a rocky first start I have landed into the very satisfying job that I now have. EM and I will even make the same meals on the same day with out ever confiding in the other about our menu. Her 'boys' call her Mrs. B and oh how they love and respect her. Not only cooking and cleaning up after them but also as a motherly ear to listen and even scold if the need arises. She is my very special friend, wife, mother, grandmother and one of the hardest workers you will ever find. If I don't bore you to death by than and you come back to read further posts, I will explain the businesses and experiences we have had together. I thank God for bringing us together and sustaining us through the storms. Next time I will start with the 'fruit truck' days, yes we were 'hucksters'!......Thanks for letting me share......
I love that you have a blog :) And I love your story with EM--the love you share is very inspiring..so keep sharing:)
