We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite show was The Price is Right. We would call out our answers along with the contestants. Laughter filled the tiny but warm house.When I got older and started going to school, we couldnt watch our game shows together regularly. That was okay with me, though, because one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake cakes.
