Quote

"They don't know how to twist their toes."

-My grandmother, while dancing to some old music with the grandkids (after she said that, she hiked up her house dress and started "twisting her toes" in the way they used to do in the 40s and 50s)

(Diana: What was that dance your grandmother taught us to do up at the cabin one year? We also tried that one, but it mostly turned into a Conga line.)

I think it was the Jitterbug, but in any case, I couldn't reproduce it now if I tried...

Hmmm...probably that one! And one that was in a line--I'm thinking it was the Hop or the Bunny or something like one of those.
