A few weeks ago, while visiting with Dad, he gave me a large mover's box worth of cookbooks, recipe boxes, magazine clippings, all containing recipes belonging to my mother and grandmother. We don't have the space to keep them all forever, and I highly doubt my mother made or seriously intended to make a fraction of these, so I decided to sift through and try to make at least a fraction of them.
The collection includes a number of those small recipe magazines available at the checkout counter at most supermarkets, of which my mother was particularly fond. My mission is to choose 2-5 recipes from each of these small magazines to cook, and blog about the results of each. I am also going to endeavor to sort through the random clippings and other books to see what strikes my fancy.
I hope this blog will serve as an impetus for me to relieve my wonderful husband of cooking some meals (he really is the best) as well as help me connect in a different way with two of the ladies I loved most in this world and whose love and guidance I miss every day.
I also hope it inspires some beginner cooks out there!
Buon appetito!
