Every single time my family gathers, we tell stories about each other. Usually they are funny or silly. We like to heckle each other about things we did growing up, like the time I made biscuits for the first time. They were so hard my brothers used them as baseballs! I cried and cried that day. But now, I can laugh when someone mentions it because I learned from my mistakes and make the most fluffy biscuits you’ve ever had! These memories, when told over and over again become family lore that humbled us and reminds us to not take ourselves too seriously. -JeKaren Olaoya (CLF)
