Meatball Stroganoff
From Mimi’s recipes This one is labeled “Meatball Stroganoff- Mother” which I assume would be my great grandmother’s recipe. I love Stroganoff, anything with mushrooms really, and with meatballs instead of sliced meat it becomes super simple. Unfortunately I am cooking for a tough crowd; My daughter has decided she hates all things mushroom, and…

Peanut Butter Cookies
From Aunt Deb’s recipe box This recipe is credited to Lynda Wenske, who’s name is on a few recipes in the box. My guess is that she was a friend of Aunt Deb’s. This is a great peanut butter cookie recipe. It whips up quickly, and using shortening instead of butter gives them a great…

Hot German Potato Salad
From Aunt Deb’s recipe box I don’t think how much I love German potato salad can be described in words. I could eat a vat of this stuff, and then maybe go back for another. Luckily I have a few more recipes for it in the stash, so this is just version #1. As a…

From Mimi’s recipe box Blueberry pancakes were a common breakfast whenever we stayed over at Mimi’s house, especially when she lived in Maine and had wild ones growing in the backyard. I am not sure if this is the recipe that she typically used, but it is credited to Sally Flynn, who was a friend…

Aunt Joan’s Orange Jello Salad
recipe from Deb Kohle My mother in law texted this one to me, saying I had to try it and that my daughter would love it. I usually refer to this type of recipe as a “Jello atrocity” but decided to give it a go! I honestly really like Jello, but it can get weird…

Granny’s Fresh Peach Pie
A recipe from Aunt Deb’s recipe box First dessert recipe! I am a big lover of pie, but my husband is not, making this another recipe to feed guests with. I have never made peach pie before, so hoping to make Granny proud. The first thing I noticed about this recipe is… there is absolutely…

Cold Spaghetti Salad
A recipe from Aunt Deb’s recipe box Picked this one out of the box to have a side for a cookout this weekend. My husband won’t eat pasta salad, or any salad for that matter, so this type of recipe is reserved for when we have company! Not sure who the original author of this…

Chocolate Chip Banana Nut Loaf
From Aunt Deb’s recipe box First recipe from the box, thanks to my daughter Vivienne and the bunch of overripe bananas chilling on my counter. There’s no author listed on the card, but I’m pretty sure it’s Aunt Deb’s tried and true banana bread recipe. The steps are easy enough, and since I’ve whipped up…
