My Mother Myself

My mother, Jo, and I have this really bad habit of tearing recipes and cooking tips from magazines and neatly organizing them in notebooks. We have actually made some of those recipes. That would probably account for about 1%. All the others we would really, really like to make. Yesterday she gave me one of her notebooks. To say the least - I was thrilled. As I ran thru the notebook I decided I would post some of them here for the next year (or so . . . ) and a few of mine. Some of them are oldies from family. Some will have no reference. Let's see how this goes . . . . .

Happiest Birthday Jo !



We found there are many variations of the old Hummingbird Cake. My sister, Faye, baked this one from Southern Living magazine for Jo's 88th birthday.

The Day After

After Dick's fritters on New Year's Eve and black eyed peas on New Year's
Day, today is a good time to use up your left over dried apples. Three ingredients if you sprinkle sugar on top for your husband.
