The document describes the daily life and activities of the writer's grandmother when she was younger. It explains that the grandmother used to speak her native language instead of Spanish, walk instead of drive since she did not own a car, play with stone dolls instead of branded toys, go shepherding instead than staying home, drink pulque since she lacked money, work instead of studying due to economic reasons, sleep early and not late afternoons, cut cactus instead of eating chicken, wash her hands instead of doing laundry, and bring wood instead of using a stove.
