You know you’re at Oba’s House

When you start to see stuff like this lying around :) I recently took a trip back to Oceanside to take care of some family thangs and also to stay with my Oba. (Oba means grandma in japanese…and YES i know we have EVERY race in my family…shhh!)

Homemade Miso

Homemade Sushi

Acupressure foot mat

floral curtains

hang dried plastic bags

Zen Garden

I had a picture of her rotary phone and Kenny G cassette tape but stupid blackberry won’t send!

Jus sharing what I’m sure a lot of grandmas have in common :)

    I agree with you Shew… things like this make me miss my Grandma so much more [too].

    I miss my Grandma’s tacos, cinnamon iced tea & her jamming to Julio Iglesias. What I miss the very most her saying “mija” with her love filled/happy to see you voice when I walked through the door.
