Answer:
In her story, Nye tells of her family heritage of a recipe for Mint Snowball which her great-grandfather was known for. In the story, she gets angry because that recipe was sold to someone else and she never tasted of her great-grandfather's mint snowball.
I know because of the comment she made while narrating the story. Below is an excerpt from the story:
Perhaps the clue to my entire personality connects to the lost Mint Snowball.
I have always felt out-of-step with my environment, disjointed in the modern
world. The crisp flush of cities makes me weep. Strip centers, poodle grooming, and take-out Thai. I am angry over lost department stores, wistful for
something I have never tasted or seen.
Explanation:
"Mint Snowball" is a story by Naomi Shihab Nye. She is a poet, songwriter, and novelist.
There were many practices common among modernist poets, such as the following: insistent breaks with the immediate past, its different inventions, "making it new" with elements from culture remote in space and time, the questions of impersonality and objectivity, emphasizing the personal imagination, culture, emotions and memories of the poet. Intellectual statements which the world could relate to were more important than personal statements.
