As we have gotten older I have loved hanging out with Nana Bunty as an adult and getting to know her on a different level.

We share a love for drinking strong lattes and eating food at one of the many amazing Melbourne cafés (just don’t let her sit where she can see the kitchen).

It seems these days she is ok with me being a vegetarian and not force-feeding me chicken soup – still the only time in my life I have eaten meat! Ha ha.

My favourite part is that at every cafe Nana bumps into someone she knows. I think she must know every Jew in Melbourne, and no matter who they are it seems like they know all about me (and each of her other grandchildren).
