This Blood Orange Spread recipe is adapted from “Sarabeths’s Good Morning Cookbook” by Sarabeth Levine. Sara made a Mandarin Orange Spread, but I choose to use Blood Oranges since they are in season right now, and they are delicious and so beautiful. I, like Sara, peeled every white string from the oranges before separating the…
Grandma Harriet’s Orange Roll
This is my Grandma Harriet’s Orange Roll recipe and I just have to share it. The way that Grandma wrote the recipe was mostly just the ingredients. I did my best to create the steps that she knew by heart. They are thinly rolled, filled with sugar, butter and orange zest. No powdered sugar topping…

Sausage Herb Stuffing
This Sausage Herb Stuffing is another recipe from Grandma Toots. I have it hand written in my book, there are no measurements, just ingredients. I taste tested these amounts and it tastes just like Grandma’s did. Isn’t it interesting how much the smells and the taste of food reminds us of our childhood? I chop…

Our very special Granddaughter, Anna, is visiting us at Mead Meadow. Anna loves banana bread and we wanted to make one of her favorite things together. We chose banana bread because everyone calls her Anna Banana. She told me to tell everyone she really doesn’t like bananas, but, there is one…
