GUEST POST


The Simple Life: On Favorite Childhood Memories
by Pamela Desmond Wright

 

When I told my family I was planning to write Amish romance, they shook their heads in disbelief. Not only am I not Amish, but I also don’t even live near Amish country. And though I’ve met a few Mennonites, I’ve never once encountered an Amish person in real life.

So why am I fascinated by the Amish?

I must admit it: I like simple living. Believe it or not, I grew up playing in an authentic log cabin, complete with a wood-burning stove. Rescued off the prairie, my grandfather lovingly restored the cabin on his property and furnished it with many of the things he and my grandmother had saved from her own childhood, brought across the high plains in a covered wagon from Oklahoma back in the depression days. These things, outdated by today’s standards, could honestly be called antiques.

Once the cabin was restored, it became THE place for all the grandkids to hang out. As one of the older kids, I loved “playing house” in that cabin and learned to cook on the stove. It was wonderful playing pioneer and I’d eagerly gather up enough wood to stoke the belly of that old beast. Lighting a fire, I’d put the kettle on and brew up a fresh pot of hot, black tea. I’d also get one of grandma’s cast iron skillets and fry up some apples with sugar and cinnamon or use it to bake up biscuits that we’d drizzle with butter and honey fresh from one of grandma’s many beehives.

In many ways, it was an idyllic way to grow up. Charmed, you might say.

Alas, those days are gone. My grandparents have passed. The cabin was donated to the local heritage center in Muleshoe, Texas –where it stands to this day, a reminder of a simpler, gentler time. One I’d give anything to revisit, just to cook on that old stove one more time.
