My Grandmom

Sorted by recipe name rather than food type the plethora beginning of Grandmom’s cards catch every eye. Followed by “homemade light bread,” “brown sugar cookies,” “prune cake,” “boiled custard,”  then “pickles” stand, flavoring the pages of the family cookbook I compiled. I am the image of Grandmom, and adopted her name for my grandsons to use. After turning eighty, Grandmom responded to Dr. Brook’s suggestion she lose weight by poking his stomach, to “I will when you do!” My grandsons will know Grandmom cookies, but to stop doctors’ observation of the feasting’s results I’ll affirm I am a compulsive eater and enjoy the cookies through my grandsons.
