Mealtimes always found my grandmother in the kitchen, laying out the dinnerware for the feast my grandfather was cooking—a freshly caught king salmon, or pork and sauerkraut. She'd reach into the cupboard high above her head to find the plates and glasses. Pat pat pat, she'd feel for the glasses before bringing them down, two at a time (Was she counting them, or just reassuring herself that they were there?). Spreading them before her on the counter, she'd quickly run her hands over them again. Then she'd pull out silverware from the drawer in front of her and go through the same ritual with the place settings—pat pat pat in the drawer as she seeks out what she needs, and again on the counter before handing them to me to set the table.
