Grandma's Answer

The pier after the cake, Tee's slideshow on the screen and the ninety-year-old on her feet: and now, a film, quiet, please; who's singing? that's me, who filmed it; I did, during the som tam; thank you for coming so far, children; thanks to this one, the house got its boats; they say, when the water rises, hurry and scoop; stop, no, keep filming; that was the speech, mine was the warm-up: thanking from the heart, and ending on a proverb.
