Family Recipes

I have had this project in my mind for over a year now and I finally got around to completing it.  I have handwritten recipes from my mom and both of my grandmothers that I put in picture frames to display in my kitchen.  I love the idea of the handwriting being in my kitchen to remind me of these three women.  And, I love the recipes!  Each of these recipes are something that I associate with the individual who wrote them....my Grandma James's nut roll, my Grandma Parnell's nuts and bolts (party mix), and my mom's cracker jacks.  Coincidentally, all of these recipes are made around Christmas time, so they bring special memories as well!

I have a recipe for family cinnamon rolls in my great grandmothers handwriting framed in my kitchen too. Such sweet memories. What I love most is that nobody would ever be able to make the cinnamon rolls by looking at that card- several amounts and ingredients are missing :) Flour isn't even mentioned. Luckily I have a more complete version of the recipe from my grandma.
