Grandmothers are the best.

Back when I was a junior fellow, our family used to visit Gran’s every Sunday, and she’d put on the goddamn kick-ass Sunday roast the likes of which I ain’t never seen (and tasted), and probably never will.

Gran and Gramps used to grow their own veges, cook ‘em fresh, and add their now-lost spices and herbs recipe. The highlight for me, was Gran’s potatoes. She used to cook the taters, freeze ‘em, then dump the buggers in hot oil (secret revealed) to make some of the most goddamn yummy spuds that I’ve ever experienced. The gravy was real and thick and tasty, too.

As a treat, we also got Coca-Cola in those classic bottles.

Damn, I miss my grandparents.

EDIT: Oh, and the slowly cooked roast lamb! To die for!

I wish I knew what having a nice grandma was like...my grandma was a bitch....

[–]meepy12345 0 points1 point ago

My grandma had to go in a home when I was 5. She never cooked but damn going to her house out in the country. She used to have cows and once they were in the valley and she was yelling at the cows to get out of there.

[–]spacegirl_spiff 0 points1 point ago

[–]MrMastodon 8 points9 points ago

[–]LATKE_IN_MY_TUCHES 12 points13 points ago

YouTube link (the donut eating scene starts at 1:50)

[–]c3bhm 3 points4 points ago

That is a reference to an old 1937 cartoon that always scared the shit out of me when I saw it on TV as a kid (back in the 70's...same era as Simpson's Matt Groening grew up in...it must have stuck in his mind, too!)...check it out:

[–]remembername 0 points1 point ago

I fucking love that part. My favorite bit is when Bart walks in and the Devil says "Hey Bart" and Bart says "Hey". There buddies. Hahahahahahahahahahah

[–]willscy 6 points7 points ago

I miss my grandparents, they were all awesome people.

[–]SutfamG 11 points12 points ago

When my gran asked if my brother wanted seconds and he declined. She asked if he were ill. Nobody declines seconds.

[–]Phapeu 5 points6 points ago

My grandmother came to visit us when she was developing Alzheimer's. She cooked me breakfast (two sausages, six rashers, two black pudding, two white pudding, beans and fried potatoes) and said "You need to get some fat on those bones".

I ate it, thanked her and left the room.

When I came back, five minutes later, the entire process was repeated. We did this about eight times.

[–]mrbucket777 1 point2 points ago

At a family party once I watched my grandma have the same exact conversation with the same responses from both of them each time with one of her sisters about 5-6 times in a row lol

[–]MrMastodon 0 points1 point ago

Your grandmother and her sister are NPCs.

[–]Bruyn 18 points19 points ago

[–]nomnomattacksdomo 4 points5 points ago

I went to visit my grandma and I gained the 20lbs that I lost the 2 weeks I was there...God it was worth it!

[–]MajorNoodles 3 points4 points ago

My wife comes from a Russian family. When I first met her parents, this is what happened every time I went to their house.

[–]D3LM3L 1 point2 points ago

KUSHAI!!

[–]xrelaht 1 point2 points ago

My Russian teacher is HS told us that it's customary to refill plates if they get emptied. The polite way to say you're done is to leave just a little bit left on the plate. She had the opposite problem from yours when she came to the US.

[–]thedocwatson 2 points3 points ago

forbidden donut..

[–]LordOfGummies 2 points3 points ago

Ironic punishment machine FTW.

[–]RICH_LITTLE 0 points1 point ago

Well, have all the donuts in the world!

[–]Lulwut_ 0 points1 point ago

That's Heaven, not Hell!

[–]Cypress85 0 points1 point ago

Replace the donuts with unsolicited opinions, and you got it right.

[–]badaboombadabing 1 point2 points ago

If you watch the gif long enough, Homer eventually explodes.

[–]Whatdafuuuuk 1 point2 points ago

You look thin hun, have you been eating?!

[–]Cg141 1 point2 points ago

Your Grandmother is what?

[–]seeashbashrun 0 points1 point ago

One of my grandmothers hates people and the other couldn't cook. I feel like I got majorly jipped.

[–]Soul123654 0 points1 point ago

[–]Davey_Disapproves -1 points0 points ago

A lot of teenagers on Reddit today...

[–]Uwould222 0 points1 point ago

What episode is that from? I forget.

[–]xrelaht 0 points1 point ago

Treehouse of Horror IV

[–]Litheon1 1 point2 points ago

I love it when a GIF loops so seemlessly.

[–]Lionel_McClure 0 points1 point ago

More.

[–]Meatwad555 0 points1 point ago

At least you can still visit your grandmother... :(

[–]naquin69 0 points1 point ago

Just watched homer eat 57 donuts, then realized the loop was only for one donut

[–]BDTS 2 points3 points ago

I know what you mean, man. I live five miles from my grandmother and visit her for lunch after work every day so she has someone to take care of and do something for. No matter how much I eat, "You don't eat enough. Do you want to take some of this home with you for later". It doesn't matter what the answer is, I'm taking some home with me. And most likely some kind of cookies or other sweets.

[–]Digipy 0 points1 point ago

Mine's blue as well. Maybe we should turn her heating up.

[–]RaptorX7 0 points1 point ago

That's a lot of red blood cells he's eating.

[–]Pythosblaze 1 point2 points ago

Oh god. I never knew my grandmothers, but I do have Italian relatives. Every time I go over there, I have to starve myself all day just so I don't offend them by turning down food once I'm full. And I don't even eat that much to begin with.

[–]Koreakat 0 points1 point ago

Me after swim practise.
