We had to store pasta under the sofa, because there wasn't room for it in the kitchen.

Can't tell you how much of my joy of cooking comes from using the familiar old cards, written by my hand or my Mom's, sister's or assorted friend's hand and decorated with well-aged stains!! <br /><br />Could never bear to re-write them as every time I see those cards the memories of great times with loved ones and good food flood back and the most important ingredient of every dish is insured. <br /><br />Will try the recipe too - sounds interesting for sure.<br />Thanks!Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10822780307120975297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5426221277108687116.post-50299333104917399852011-03-20T05:34:11.811-07:002011-03-20T05:34:11.811-07:00I remember this recipe card!
