remembering

While in Hawaii, I went through my mom's cookbooks, to give to a charity or maybe to the library...my brother will take care of where it will go (Thank you!)

She actually had some of Grandma's too.

That Hilo Women's cookbook is my Grandma's and is from 1953! There were some interesting recipes in there...

I also went through the shoebox she had of recipes from newspaper and magazine clippings....boy, were there a lot of char siu recipes...

Think about you all the time especially today, Mom.

Love you.

I love old recipes! I love the Maui cookbook series, as a young bride that and the Betty Crocker cookbook was my go-to since I never learned to cook. I go to Library book sales and I've found old ones, including Jalna's sister DeeDee, and in another really old cookbook someone had neatly clipped all kinds of newspaper recipes. Gold mine!!! How blessed are you to have your mom's!!!
