well, obviously, it's impossible to pick a favorite family member. but, in light of recent events, i'm going to have to pick my grandma:
growing up, she's the one who taught me to bake, so that was a major contribution to my life. until recently, i had lived with her for almost two years, before she passed away a few weeks ago from a bladder infection, which came from complications after radiation for lung cancer. she was immensely loving, God-fearing, beautiful, and stubborn (a trait I'm pretty sure i inherited). in this picture, she's holding Nuggette, who is also her namesake. it's weird living in the house by myself now, but i still think about her and miss her everyday.
on a side note, please ignore whatever the heck it is i'm doing in the background.
