Miss Janie Brown had her work cut out for her as she raised a curious yet loving but quite mischievous little girl named Doris Brown. This was early in the 1920s, during a time when racism was on the rise. Doris vividly illustrates the scene of what it was like growing up in the South with booming businesses like Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and R. J. Reynolds, whose origins are deeply rooted in Forsyth County. She remembers how two communities merged forming Winston Salem. Still, she had questions and was determined to find answers her way. Doris's track record of being curious always struck at the wrong time teaching her some of her deepest life lessons. Find out in her story who the nagging mosquito is that Doris couldn't get rid of. And, although she was always thirsty for more knowledge, learn why colored water wasn't satisfying her anymore. She found something else to sip on to help her live a fulfilling life even at the tender age of 95. She made a promise to a special someone, she'd stand for something so as not to fall for anything. She's eager to share that secret with you, as it's part of her purpose.
