My dad's dad liked to think of himself as a tea connossieur. He had quite a collection of differant teas and people would send him tea. I learned the differance between all the differant kinds of teas. He used to make me green tea every morning in a little aluminum tea pot that was shaped like a coffee pot. It had a metal "egg" that hung down in the center inside and had holes in it. That is where the tea leaves went. So I still drink alot of green tea hot. My grandma(Dad's mom) would fry eggs sunny side up and then put them on a plate. She then cut them into bite sized pieces and crumbled bread into that stirring it together. This was a common thing to do for little kids when my grandma was growing up. I still eat this from time to time for breakfast.
My Mom's dad always ate sugar on his cottage cheese and I cannot eat it any other way!! Everyone thinks I am crazy but it is really good!
