My mom’s mom always has Neosporin ointment and my dad’s mom always had grease in one form or another. That woman cooked everything in fat.
Stink bombs, party poppers or smoke bombs
Your grandmother sounds crazy !!!
Good grandma story…sorry to derail a bit. My maternal grandma married my grandfather because they hit it off and had the same birthday…What she didn’t tell him was she was 10 years older! They were both great people but grandma was so cool…she read tea leaves in cups and did it professionally when she needed money…she read people really well.
That’s a nice story !!!
Chocolate chips. She has them as an ingredient but when I was a kid she let me eat them straight from the bag.

My one grandmother always used to give me and my brother candy before bedtime as kids.
Oh you know the usual. Preparation H. Cough syrup. Asprin. Tea. A infinite amount of facial tissues by her chair.
My grandma always had these bomb gummies on hand:
Miss her
White or wheat flour.
My maternal grandmother always had her hands up to her elbows in flour of some kind or another. And she usually sifted it. Making lots of pie crust, and different kinds of cakes, cookies and breads… Her baking was matched only by her cooking, gardening, canning and housekeeping. She was a female Jack of all trades. My grandpa really was a Jack of all trades.
Cigarettes, she was too addicted, was a smoker for almost 70 years. She had like 1000 cigarettes in her room.
We didnt let her smoke in our house so she smoked in the bathroom, garage, her room, etc She was living with us and we hate smoking as it smells bad. It was a nightmare, I was always angry at her as I used to sleep in her room when I was a kid and I would suffocate when she smoked at night when I was sleeping with the door and windows closed as its too cold outside like -30 to -40C.
She died at around 80y.o. from kidney failure probably from smoking. She told me that she started smoking when she was 10 y.o.
I only have one living grandparent. I cut off ties with her years ago. But she smokes weed, so she always has dem blunts!!!
Just about every Arab I knew in college smoked. I don’t know if it’s a cultural thing. The people I hung out with were Saudis so I don’t know if it’s a Saudi thing. Like iced tea is a cultural thing in the southern USA.
My parents and brothers hate smoking.
My grandfather on my dad’s side grew weed in his back yard and he wouldn’t let us kids eat his brownies
Yeah. Idk. Probably just those people liked to smoke and it had nothing to do with the culture.
