#mother

I like cooking but I don't know much and whenever I enter the kitchen, my mother sends me out! Because whenever I try a dish from a book, it comes out bad. ↗

My mother is who she is. I've become who I am. At some point I realized those two just didn't go together. ↗

I think I was well brought up, for my father and mother were of one mind regarding the care of the family. ↗

My father was Catholic, my mother was Protestant, and because of that I got Christened in both churches, so I've got all these names... but my Dad always called me Mick. ↗

My mother's death put me in touch with my most savage self. As I've grown up and come to terms with her death and accepted it, the pieces of her that I keep don't exist materially. ↗

I was a middle child and was used to negotiating. But there was nothing I could do to reverse my mother's condition. ↗

My mother's father taught English literature. When I was about ten or eleven, I could recite Macaulay's 'Lays of Ancient Rome.' While other kids were playing pedestrian war games, I'd be Horatius keeping the bridge. ↗
