My maternal grandmother died before I was born. I have a few of her heavenly recipes one of which reaches back to Colonial times. I bake the pastry cookies every December. Was told she could bake up a storm, all by hand. I use the KitchenAid. 🍰🍪😇I have zero recollection of my paternal grandmother cooking anything. She passed away while I was young. She supposedly was a superb cook in her time, mostly old country Polish. And of course the entire extended family is better at Italian than anything. |

Growing up in the depression in NYC it was waste not, want not. She'd take any stale bread, heels ends etc. whip up some custard , cinimmon, raisins & vanilla extract (60 proof Ehilers) toss it in the oven & out comes a pudding to die for. That vanilla extract gave it that special zing that made us all glad that they repealed prohibition!:) |

I had Oxtails and Rice at a place on Sutphin Blvd near the LIRR station. Delicious. They also had awesome beef ribs.The wife of a proof operator in a type plant I worked at made dinner for him every day and put it in a mess kit for him to take in. He used to heat it up on a lead pot. When he had oxtails, the aroma made me jealous. |

My girlfriend's mother was an amazing Italian cook*, and she wasn't from the Old Country. Show you can never tell.*You know, the kind that makes a half-dozen or more appetizers, each better than the last. |

Why do I get the feeling there's a generational thing here? My mother (who is my daughter's grandmother after all) was a fine lady but no cook. HER mother (MY grandmother) was the cook.I've heard it said it skips generations... |

You're currently ignoring at least two topics that you are wrong about:1. You are ignoring the Santorum issue. 2. You are ignoring the "wait 2 or 3 seconds before proceeding on a green light" issue. |
