I love how mom loosens up and forgets the camera is there after a while. This is well-edited and truly wonderful. A genuine slice of humanity living their lives.

Thanks for posting this!

I want to hug both of them. And then share a quesadilla, with lots of sour cream.

I watched the first minute and thought it was cute but didn't really feel the need to watch the rest of it. Then, almost without thinking about it, I went and made a quesadilla then came back and hung out with them while eating it.

Yeah, don't buy the cheaper chicken for your quesadillas. Loved this!

I believe the mom is DUTCH Dutch. But the daughter could not be more from Pennsylvania if she tried.

I totally loved this video, and found this HOLLAND CONFIRMATION from Chandra Moore (the daughter in the video) on Reddit. I was totally confused at first, too!

I have had sooooo many THERE WAS NEVER A PANCAKE HOUSE conversations with my mom.

The most recent one that I can remember is when my mom pointed to an SUV with a for sale sign in its back window in the parking lot of a business complex and said, "Is that Dr. [recently-deceased childhood eye doctor]'s truck?"

Not, "I wonder if that's the truck." Or, "That could be the truck." "Is that the truck." HOW DO I KNOW, MOM? HOW?

Interesting -- she's both her mom and her grandmother! Her mom first adopted her birth mother, and then adopted her.

I loved this.
