grandma's

Elder matriarch's possession

Grandma's is the possessive form of grandma, indicating something belonging to or associated with one's grandmother: We're going to grandma's for Thanksgiving, grandma's house, grandma's recipe.

The word often evokes warmth, tradition, and home cooking—grandma's cookies suggests something homemade and comforting rather than store-bought.
