When my great grandmother passed away, I found this old
scrapbook among the things the rest of the family wasn’t interested in. I grabbed it up right away! Behind this decorative cover lies treasure…
… a bit of my grandma on every page. I remember cooking and canning with her when
I was little. Oh the meals she could
make!!!
She clipped and pasted all sorts of things. It’s fun to see what she was interested in
cooking. And it’s equally fun looking at
how recipe notations have changed in 66 years.
In some places she wrote in the recipes from friends. I wonder who Mary Lee Taylor was? She must have been a good cook; there are
quite a few of her recipes in here.
On a few pages she pasted in recipes that friends had given
her. And I love the way she made sure to
get the recipe photo in where she could.
We’ve tried one of these recipes so far. Himself makes this rice pudding as a
treat. It is a bit of a process but sooo
worth it!
I’m going to keep this recipe scrapbook on a plate rack in
my dining room for the memories of cooking with my grandma.
Easy to make!!!
