[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom was a stay at home mom in the 70s and she had a little side business of making wedding cakes.  She would work on them every Thursday-Saturday and drop it off at the reception.  I never really gave it much thought or appreciation.  She died when I was 20 and I had kind of forgotten about her little side hobby.  Years later at my wedding my aunt gave me my moms "cake book."  She had made 108 wedding cakes and had a picture of each one.  She pasted it to the notebook and wrote a few sentences about the couple, the cake, and how much she changed.  It is just so precious to me.  It was something that was HERS.  It wasn't about her 4 kids, or my dad, or a million other duties she had it just represents a hobby that she loved and a talent that she had.  Now my little girls LOVE to look through the "cake book" and we talk about how we bet they were so delicious and what would we would want her to make for us.  In a fire I would  grab the cake book!!  What about you?[/quote]

I'd grab my kids, my laptop, my jewelry, my photo albums, handbag and car keys.  I could do it pretty quickly too, house is pretty small :)[/quote]
