Six months after my mother’s death, I keep my tomatoes in her - TopicsExpress



          

Six months after my mother’s death, I keep my tomatoes in her latticed white bowl, drink my coffee from her porcelain mugs. I wear her wedding ring on a chain (my husband wears my father’s). Here is my guilt: not that I let my mother eat, but that I didn’t feed her better. I wish we’d sat in more French restaurants. I wish I’d brought good wine. I wish her pleasure had been my passion. I wish I had only said yes. *I love this short essay by Dylan Landis on The Manifest-Station so much. So moving! Make sure you are subscribed to the site via email.
