When I was young and we visited the farm, which was my favorite thing to do, we would always have a wonderful dinner prepared by my grandmother. I remember my Uncle Jim sitting at the kitchen table with his legs crossed and I was amazed at just how fast he could shake that top leg. I am reminded of him when I sit with my legs crossed and I start shaking my top leg. It's funny how those small things stick with us.
