Do You Ever...
Frame your Grandmothers recipes? I love how old it is...love her handwriting...love the little red check marks next to each ingredient. I think about her making this Cranberry Nut bread. She made it all the time around the holidays. I make it every year now too. I keep a picture of her next to it...and that's my handmade flower Will made me for Mother's day. My Nana has been gone now for 21 years...I still miss her. But, I love looking at this every day. I love letters and recipes in frames...don't put them away in a box!

Love it too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tribute.
Enjoy the day!
What a beautiful idea. I've kept the cards my late grandmothers sent. I'd still recognize their handwriting anywhere.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this idea...might steal some from of those recipe cards from my mom next time I'm home.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea.
ReplyDeleteBut most of all, I love that picture of your grandma. Who could help loving a lady with a smile like that?
Our grandmas make such impressions on who we are as adults. Weird, isn't it?
Oh, what a GREAT idea. I LOVE my mom's handwriting (don't have any Mimi-recipes). That pictures is priceless!!!
ReplyDeleteI've often thought of that too....my mom and grandma's writing on a recipe is so comforting to me! Great idea, great post!
ReplyDeleteI think I will steal this idea! I have wonderful recipes from my great Aunt Goldie that deserve this!
ReplyDeleteI am going to do this today with a recipe from my Mother in law...her famous button biscuits...a tribute to her today on her Son's (my Hubby's) birthday...thank you for this! xoxo
ReplyDeleteyou are sooo beautiful pam xx
ReplyDeletePam...I did a post on my blog Ciao Bella with my recipe...thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I don't know if I have any handwritten recipes from my mom or grandma, but maybe I can do it with one of my own!

never thought of that! i am going to do one with my mom's recipes. she gave me a bunch (handwritten, of course) when I was in college...now they are memorized, but i luv this idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to frame a favorite, family recipe. I love that.

What a great idea! Sadly don't have any of my grandmothers recipecards, but would love to adopt this for one of two of my favourite recipes to be handed down. Cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful, sentimental idea. I'm going to do this, too!
ReplyDeleteI have recipe cards like that...I love this idea!
