About this book

Sarah Louise "Sadie" Delany and A. Elizabeth "Bessie" Delany, now 105 and 103 years old, took the reading public by storm with their surprise bestseller, *Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years*. Since then, people all over the world have been writing and asking them questions. Now they offer their fans a treasury of grandmotherly good sense: memorable aphorisms, engaging anecdotes, rules for managing money, practical advice on staying active in old age, and some favorite recipes, too. It's a book filled with the secrets of living well, from two women who did it for more than a century.
