Gammy's new news...
Message Center...
I don't know about you, but I have always had a hard time throwing away any pictures that my children made for me while they were growing up. My refrigerator always looked this way... proudly displaying all their current art projects. As they grew, it became "the message center"; the means by which we communicated with each other during their busy teen years that we seemed to all be on very different schedules.
Not much has changed over the years. Yes, all my children's paintings and "I love you mommy" notes have been lovingly packed away, but now a new generation of artwork proudly graces the face of my fridge. A smile crosses my face every day as I gaze upon my new collection of masterpieces.

Cookery for Entertaining by Marlene Sorosky
This is the first cookbook I purchased after getting married in 1977. It was published in 1979 and out of my entire collection purchased over the years, it's still my favorite.
Desserts- by Martha Stewart
This cookbook comes in a close second. Actually, I think Martha's recipes have them all beat in the "overall flavor category"
Philadelphia Cream Cheese Finest Recipe Collection- My copy has many well worn pages. Great recipes in this one too.

The kitchen has always been the place where my family generally discussed interesting current events... like, who broke up with whom at school or what to wear to the prom. You know, all the important things in a teens life. My family is all grown now with families of their own, but the gathering spot remains the same in "Gammy's House" right here in the Kitchen!
