I was going through photo albums and found these pictures of my Grandma Maggie in this apron and the Quilt that my Mom made out of it after Grandma died. That quilt really means a lot now. Paul sleeps under it every night. I think about how much Grandma loved cooking and baking and taking care of her family. It is a legacy that I want to carry on. My mom did, and I have a rich tapestry of memories of family meals, recipes and traditions. I still have many of Grandma's cookie recipes, written in her own handwriting, and several favorites that mom gave me that I use on a weekly basis. The Pumpkin Bread that I bake every Christmas has become a traditional gift to many of my friends, and now some of them are using the same recipe. Women are so blest to have the Blessing of other women, past and present. God Bless all of you!
