When I was born, my Gran put together a book of her favourite recipes that she had gathered from friends, family and magazines for me. When Lindsay was born she got a copy of the cookbook too and when our cousin Tyne married Nicole, she was also gifted a cookbook. Many of the recipes come from an era of frozen vegetables, tv dinners and cake mix.
Lindsay and I will both be updating this blog throughout the year. I have a bit more experience in the kitchen than Lindsay does so these recipes should be good for people of all skill levels.
Our goal with this blog is to go through the recipe book and try the good, the bad and the lard filled. We will try each recipe, make improvements and talk about our adventures finding ingredients and working with the recipes. Hopefully by the end of this experiment we will have a cookbook that's been updated with real ingredients that still has the energy and love our Gran put into the original!
We hope you enjoy this experiment as much as we do. Happy Cooking!
Always love a good Cooking read :) Can't wait to see what Linds and you have to offer!!!
