Remember the pain when those boll-points would run up under the cuticle of your fingers? I would try to keep up with Mammy Rose, who would be picking two rows at a time. I would always fall behind and get lonely and cry out to her and she would pick my row too until I caught up with her. She was the great love of my childhood.
