She often eats out at a restaurant after trying to accomplish a given dish at home. None the less, she enjoys food and what it says about the human experience.

AH, I love this blast from the past! I have a Swedish meatball recipe that is from the cookbook my grandma gave my mom when she moved out of the house. It’s so old, but so good.
It must be so good to have such tangible memories of your grandma and her cooking. While both my grandmothers are still alive and cooking, my great-grandmother left us only the memories of her cooking, with nothing written down. I think that’s part of the reason that I love food blogging – it’s as permanent a record as I can get of what I’ve learned to cook over the years from the fabulous women in my life
Thank you so much for sharing with us!
