This is Anne's GrandmotherShe lives in a little village on the central coast of Vietnam that is surrounded by rice paddies and mountains
Her teeth and mouth are stained red from chewing betel nut all day, a highly addictive appetite suppressant. The betel nut chew is made with betel leaves, lime paste, betel nut and tobacco, which is ground up together and placed next to the gums.This is what she uses to grind up her betel nut chew - a hollowed out bullet and a paint can lid opener.This is her house where she lives with Anne's uncle, aunt and their two girls who care for her with such devotion and loving care, a touching example of family. Their daily routine consists of following her around and telling her it's too early to shut up the house and close all the doors and windows

your grandma could teach Aretha a thing or two about headresses. she sure doesn't need an appetite suppressant. I'm so glad you got to see her and the other family. does rice taste better if it's fresh? see you soon.- Christine- (heather's aunt)
