Things Your Granny Knew That Google Forgot

Things Your Granny Knew That Google Forgot

Old wisdom, strange traditions, everyday magic and the things we somehow stopped passing down.

Why did Granny throw salt over her shoulder? Why were shoes never allowed on the table? Could cows really predict the rain—and why did every family have a button tin containing absolutely everything except the button you wanted?

This warm, funny and fascinating digital book opens the cupboard doors on the beliefs, sayings, remedies and peculiar little customs passed down through generations.

Across 125 beautifully designed pages, you’ll discover:

• Household superstitions and protective traditions

• Kitchen wisdom and the magic of feeding people

• Weather signs from before we had apps

• Folklore surrounding animals, plants, money and luck

• Old remedies—including which ones are best left firmly in the past

• The practical wisdom and human truth hiding beneath strange beliefs

• Gentle memory pages for recording your own family’s sayings and traditions

This book doesn’t ask you to believe everything Granny said. It invites you to understand why she said it, keep the wisdom that still serves us and lovingly release the fear that doesn’t.

Because Google can give us an answer—but it cannot tell us what our families once knew.

Keep the wonder. Leave the fear. And put the kettle on.

A 125-page digital book from Grandmother Moon & Me Rememberings.
