August 18th…….”DID OUR GRANDMA CLARICE FEED FAMILY AND NEIGHBORS THAT CAME TO HELP ON YOUR FARM NEAR KIESTER, MINNESOTA”??
POEM – “Delicious Pay” by N. Elliott Noorlun created December 13th, 2018
Reminds me of, The days back when,
Our farm table was, Surrounded by men.
In from the field, And hungry for,
Some great cooking that, Our mom had in store.
Whether putting up silage, Or baling hay,
They all showed up, To save our day.
A grand farm meal, Was just one means,
Of showing love to heroes, In bib overall jeans!!! 😉
“Queen of Her Kitchen”…that was Elliott’s sweet mother, Clarice, who fed untold numbers of family and farm neighbors who blessed us with a helping hand when needed their strength during various harvest times on their farm northwest of Kiester, Minnesota.
I may be only one oat seed in a field of millions, yet I have a story to share of beginnings on our beloved farm in southern Minnesota and beyond to life as I've seen it to this point. Famous? No. Gifted? Unlikely. Yet, I want to leave a legacy to my children and grandchildren of who this gentle Norwegian man was. My happy times, sad times, successes and failures. Someday, those who are tiny now, will have this volume to come to and get to know this Norwegian Farmer's Son.
