Reminiscing with an Audience

I chose my blog “Coffee Hour” for my best piece that demonstrates an awareness of audience and voice. Relating the story about my grandmother in the blog creates a link between my audience and I. Many people have fond memories of their grandmother; some with cookies and milk and others not, but they are all valuable memories. “Coffee hour was its own moment; a time of reminiscing and ‘counting your blessings’ where you could forget your worries and just melt into the comfort of good food, memories and fellowship with family.” In my blog I emphasized the importance of traditions and not taking them for granted. All of us have family traditions that we hold dear and miss but did not appreciate when we were younger because it was too familiar. I hope it brings back memories for you.
