This is Volume 1 containing two stories set in New Orleans and Alaska. I told one to my grandchildren when they were very small and they asked for more so I wrote about places I have been and sent the stories to them. They are teenagers now and would like to visit all the places I wrote about.
Grandmas Box is about a grandma who is sharing wisdom with her granddaughter. She explains the reasons why her granddaughter should not allow others to put their views, expectations, and limitations on her life. Grandma decided to live outside of the box because, in her life, people told her she could not accomplish her dream, which was to own her own store. The box is a nifty reminder to Grandma and the granddaughter to never listen to what others have to say about their dreams.
Some of our most cherished memories are of visits to Grandma's house...and the wonderful meals she cooked for us. When she called us down for breakfast, we knew there would be homemade caramel rolls and hot cocoa waiting, just for us. In chilly weather, there was always a hearty kettle of vegetable soup or chili simmering on her stove. At dinnertime, the table overflowed with tender chicken and noodles or slow-baked pot roast, buttery mashed potatoes, brown sugar carrots (because she knew we wouldn't eat them, otherwise!) and salads, fresh-picked from her garden. Her cookie jar was filled with our favorite snickerdoodles or chocolate chip cookies, and there was always a frosted layer cake in the cake stand. So many delicious memories! From Grandma's Recipe Box is chock-full of all these recipes and more, shared by cooks like you, handed down through generations and still enjoyed today.
