As a child while growing up here in Cincinnati I recall my friends and I climbing a very large mulberry tree and eating its delicious and staining fruit.
I remember going home and my grandmother wiping the purple stain off my face and hands.
She would say something in German which probably meant "I am really happy to have you as a grandson and I love you so much"!
Thank you for the post, it brought back memories.
