Ahhh. I see. I thought you knew her! So, I was going to say, hey,
she was your great grandmother, she must have lived pretty long!
She sounds neat, sorry she was not around longer.

I prefer Daisy too, because it's simply sour cream...no additions, no guar gum , no
gunk.

I use a packet of Mrs. Grass onion soup mix in a pint of Knudsen's
sour cream. I've always liked it that way.

I felt the same way about my father's mother, whom I did meet, but I was
maybe two at the time. She died when I was four. I grew up with my
parents marveling about how much my hands--rather broad-palmed with
long, tapered fingers--looked like hers. When I learned that she had a bad
temper, wrote poetry, and never liked anyone to see her unless she was
"just so" I felt like she must have been a soul mate of mine! She apparently
had quite a sense of humor. Among her possessions, perhaps even passed
down to her, was a Victorian incense burner called a "naughty." It is a dog
in that classic pooping position with a very expressive look on his muzzle,
with little tongs in the vicinity of his nether regions where you put the
incense,
that then apparently dropped off in clumps as it burned. I have similar,
classic taste.

I will have to get a picture of it and post it for you! She
also had a chalkware figure of Adolf Hitler bending over.
His rear end is a pin cushion. Both of her sons served in
WWII. She was born in 1900.

Same here, or rather, I like its taste just as well, so the lower fat
pushes it over the edge into being our favorite.

ooo OOOO! Our grandmother's were born in the same year. My
grandmother had a bawdy sense of humor too, but it was verbal and
quite subtle. I had to grow up before I understood most of what she
was really saying.

She died when I was 17 and I still miss her
(we lived next door).

who has her grandmother's hands too

I "like" low fat sour better than yogurt as a potato topping. Other
than that... give me real sour cream (especially on potatoes). I'll
cook with low fat sour cream, no problem. Just don't ask me to put in
directly on someting and *eat* it.
