I wanted to say thank you for the lovely bath salts. They smell so tempting. I am going to enjoy a long soak in a deep bath tonight.

I even remember making them after having a "ton" of zucchini one summer and trying something new. They tasted like Bread-&-Butter pckles and I loved them...but I think I was the ony one! I'm pretty sure the Bar B Q recipe is from your Aunt Barbara. It's her hand writing and there was a time when I loved making Bar B Q and she gave me her favorite way to make it. I can't wait to see some others you have in your treasure box. I know I've loved coming across recipes from my Mom and just tracing her handwriting with my finger somehow brings me close to her again.

From the submission page "RECIPES, and OTHER MISCELLANEOUS CONTENT: We gladly consider unsolicited annotated recipes. Boy, are we ever pining for some great annotated recipes, compelling correspondence, found texts, and story-ish charts and graphs." Oz Spies has something on there right now: http://thenormalschool.com/recipes.html Steven Church is one of the editors.Jill Salahubnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5830518260713053714.post-74225657122745799032010-02-24T08:44:16.000-08:002010-02-24T08:44:16.000-08:00Nicole--thank you so much for your comments.

I guess I'm also feeling sad about the kind of recipes I'm looking for lately. It's just not the same to pass down a vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free recipe. Ari likes Grammy's sugar cookies--not mommy's ground nut agave bars! Oh well, he'll have a little of both (and I will too).Kelly Feinbergnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5830518260713053714.post-75735305179784902172010-02-24T06:44:32.000-08:002010-02-24T06:44:32.000-08:00This is really beautiful Kelly, I enjoy your mom&#...This is really beautiful Kelly, I enjoy your mom's blog (because of her creativity) and her connection she shares through stories to past generations and memories. It reminds me of my own memories of childhood. My mom has a whole handwritten cookbook from my nana, it is so beautiful to see her handwritten old fashioned recipes. I seem to just prop my laptop up and copy a recipe as I make it from online these days, recipes that I know and love I write into a journal.... I love your idea of keeping recipes and adding beauty to them!gardenmamanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5830518260713053714.post-61699889034298435222010-02-23T20:23:49.000-08:002010-02-23T20:23:49.000-08:00This is precious.

I need to write more down and stop copying them from the internet. The book mark idea is pure genius!Kandycenoreply@blogger.com
