Nan Hough shares a wonderful life's journey filled with her beliefs of John 3:16, stories of family, (3 children, 6 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren) forty years as an educator, European travels, hobbies, standup comedy routines, and passions for cooking and eating. Her vivid description of the French wedding dinner is so real you can almost taste the velvety chicken soup. Personal recipes, those from her family, the Great Depression, and cherished friends, will never be lost. Nan's siblings were so much older, that she was raised almost an only child. She remained lifelong friends with her first husband, father of her three children, and did the eulogy for his funeral, even though both of them had remarried. She views her life as wonderful, and happy, though she's spent six years in a wheelchair from crippling osteoarthritis.
Nan Hough has woven her philosophy of life, poetry, sayings of children, jokes, and genealogy going back to the Civil War, into a fascinating, educational collection. Her mother was greatly shocked, when a man declared dead for eight years, came knocking at her door. Was this her biological father as he said? Nan tells all.
