For me it is my Grandmas rice - she passed away 15 years ago- after she passed we found at least 5 different recipes written down ... it took my brother at least 10 years to hit the right combination from them and get it right . Now he makes it for all the family gatherings YUMMY

My mom was a self-taught cook and she became so good at it. Her homemade bread, homemade banana cream and coconut cream pies, her roasts, beef and pork and gravy, potato salad, cole slaw, miss her so much, not just her cooking, she excelled at all she did! We were so blessed to have her for so many years. She was an excellent seamstress too, self-taught, drafted her own patterns.

Hot fresh homemade yeast bread...both grandma and mom made it as a treat. Sometimes for supper we'd have fried bread, a ball of dough smashed down to a puffy pancake, fried in a skillet and eaten with syrup and butter. Yum.

When my dad made chili, you know, ( I don't remember my mom ever making it, but that could be because of my memory, not because O my mom) he put the beans in a blender and mushed them up before adding to the chili. That was what 45 years ago? I have never met anyone else who did that

My dad would make banana pudding and even after I was grown and out on my own he would make it and tell me it was for my boys and I only. He never did like my first husband and he did not make it a secret he didn't like him. My first husband would try and get some from the boys and they would tell him no, because grandpa said so.. It was so good too.
