10 questions we should ask our grandma - while we still can

During our childhood, we preferred to spend our holidays with our grandparents. Because with Granny you could do things, eat and say, which were strictly forbidden with Mama.

6. Is there something you always wanted to do, but never did?
7. What gave you strength in difficult times?
