“Go fetch my medicine!”
- Grandma Nellie, used to say.
The Hon’y Luv Story
Being part Native American and dirt poor, the Collins family lived off the land and used as many natural ingredients as possible. One of the local favorites was wild honey. It was a bit tricky getting the honey, but it was well worth the efforts. Family members would always tell us the stories that included Grandma Nellie saying, “Hon’y Luv, go fetch my medicine (Nellie’s reference to her honey flavored whiskey)! Even though they didn’t have much, they were always a happy clan!
