A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Deli


My mother just had to call to tell me about what happened to my Nanny (my maternal grandmother) while at her favorite deli in Nashville yesterday. My Nanny is a sweet little old lady who loves to read the tabloids and follow all the celebrities lives. She loves to her celebrities so much that when my older brother moved to L.A. to persue a film career, she would tell him to get the stars autographs for her. She would tell him to go to this restaurant or that coffee bar because a certain celebrity liked to get a latte there. Well, Nanny was leisurely enjoying a sandwich at this deli when Vince Gill and Amy Grant walked in. Nanny was just beside herself with excitement, so much so that she had to call my mother to tell her the news. My mother told her not to bother them because they would probably appreciate having a lunch without signing autographs and taking pictures. Nanny was an inch away from going to her car and getting her camera until my mother told her not to. Nanny went on to finish her lunch and leave the deli. Well, Nanny just couldn't help herself when she was pulling out of the parking lot and Vince Gill and Amy Grant walked right by her car. Nanny rolled down her window and told them how happy she was that they walked into the deli today. She went on to say that they had made her day and she had to call her daughter in Savannah, GA to tell her the wonderful news. Vince Gill and Amy Grant chatted with her for a moment and told her to have a Happy Thanksgiving. Oh my, that sure was a wonderful day for Nanny and I couldn't be happier for her.
