I just started reading Women Rowing North by Mary Pipher, and it's making me think of my mother and mother-in-law and myself, and how we're all dealing with aging in our own ways.<br />I've been cooking from my cookbooks while I've been home so much now; that's really been a silver lining for me in all this. I love going back to old favorites and also trying new recipes that I've meant to try for years! Today for Weekend Cooking, I posted about two cookbooks that I wish I owned, but because of the libraries' closing down, I've been able to keep and enjoy for many weeks longer than a normal library loan. Another silver lining! ;)Laurie Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00177559207735782406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-89146210367265742632020-04-11T20:30:18.018-04:002020-04-11T20:30:18.018-04:00I was happy to find that my library is purchasing ...I was happy to find that my library is purchasing both of these books and immediately placed a reserve.

When my grandmother passed, I requested some of her pots and pans because I had learned so much from her. I didn't keep them long, they were really past use when they arrived, but I used each one to cook a dish that we had shared at one time or another through the years. I still think back to those recipes. <br />That baking book seems like a great choice as a gift as well as for one's self. Have a great week.
