"That Big Fork and Spoon on the Wall in the Kitchen"


  

          


Check in if you grew up in a house with them joints on the wall.

Every black house i ever went to growing up had these some bigger and some smaller...

You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Anyone else have the wooden bowl with the wooden fruit inside of it?

always had another purpose. In my house, it was my mom's sewing box.
and although nobody drank Crown Royal, there was always one of those purple velvet bags in the house.
