About this Blog

This is a collection of family recipes that I want to pass on to Anna (and Owen, Jacob, Raisa, & Sam) some day. I also plan to make a book of some type when we have collected enough recipes.

Recipes from Eldora are typed as they were written on the cards she gave me, any notes associated with the recipes are hers.
