Grandmother's Spoon, Sunday Pot

by Vanta Lux

“My grandmother's spoon and a Sunday pot with steam on the window. It's the warmest track I have.”

Lyrics

Wooden spoon, a chipped blue bowl
Steam on the window, the kitchen is warm
Grandma hums and she stirs it slow
No paper, no measure, she just knows

A little more salt
A little more time

Stir it slow, stir it slow
Sunday pot on the stove
Taste of home, taste of home
Grandma's hands, I'm not alone

Onions soft and golden brown
Bay leaf floating, the whole house knows
She says the secret is patience, love
Then she laughs and she won't say more

A little more salt
A little more time

Stir it slow, stir it slow
Sunday pot on the stove
Taste of home, taste of home
Grandma's hands, I'm not alone

Now I cook it in my own small place
Same blue bowl, same spoon
Steam on the window, I hear her voice
Taste it, taste it, it's ready soon

Stir it slow, stir it slow
Sunday pot on the stove
Taste of home, taste of home
Grandma's hands, I'm not alone

Stir it slow
Taste of home
