TOP 5 REASONS WHY MY MOTHER IS THE MOST HILARIOUS WOMAN ON EARTH
- She played "The Spirit of God Like a Fire is Burning" while the congregation was exiting the church because someone lit the drapes on fire during the seminary graduation.
- One year she gave away kittens as "treats" for Halloween.
- At the age of 75, she's started violin lessons (and we thought she was nuts when she started banjo lessons at 40).
- She's a "Beet Digger" and proud of it.
- She planted corn on the roof of the house (When Lorna asked her why she planted corn on the roof, Dot replied, "Because the cantaloupe kept rolling off").

Oh my. The cantaloupe one is my favorite. Although it takes a pretty cool cucumber to sit and play something punny on the piano while the drapes are on fire.
I've been hoping you'd tell that cantaloupe story!
I'd like to join your mother's fan club.
i love that story about the cantelopes too! i wonder what crazy things she is going to do next?
hahaha! i'm with geo, a total FAN!
CW -- yeah, she's awesome.
GEO -- the cantaloupe story is famous in our family (but it was horrifying as a teenager to be known as the girl with the corn growing on her roof).
BECKS -- who knows? She's always up to something.
GRITTY PRETTY -- yes, my mother has many fans. She's a riot.
