I'm married with three grown kids, 2 with little ones of their own - so I was a Grandma the first time at the ripe ole age of 39! Anyway that earth shaking event was 7 years ago and have added 3 more boys since then!
I have been cooking since I was 8 years old, learning a lot of recipes from an 1930's vintage Watkin's cookbook that my Aunt had - she has since lost the book - darn it - but I still have some of the recipes I copied from it.
