About Me

Youthful grandmother of 6 ranging in ages of 9 to 31.  Great-gram to one age 7. I've been cooking since I was in elementary school, as the oldest of child of 4 siblings. Most of my recipes are from older cookbooks from when I was in 6th grade. "Old fashioned recipes" are my favorites because most of the required ingredients are easily found in supermarkets or at farmers' markets. My husband of 51 years was raised on a farm and he has shared many of his mother's recipes that he enjoyed as he was growing up.  Although the traditional recipes of times past sometimes take longer to make, today having crockpots makes them less time consuming.(you just have to try the timing vs stovetop cooking)
