My mom passed away this week. A holocaust survivor. A nurse. A baker. A chef. Mom to 3. Grandmother to 8. Great-grandmother to 2. She died peacefully, on her very adamant terms, surrounded by her children. At her burial, my youngest niece said “she escaped the ultimate horror of our time, came here speaking no english, built a life and a career, raised three boys, and nurtured us all to love people, do good things, work hard, fuck the nazis. She was an unapologetic badass.” Mom was 92.
@MPCavalier I’m sorry for your loss of your amazing mom. I love this story, what a beautiful memory. Have you seen the headstones where they carve in a family heirloom recipe? Something to think about maybe. 🌹
@MPCavalier @BeccaL if people can put an entire cookie recipe on a headstone, you should be able to put "Unapologetic Badass" on it.
