Roast beef with
gravy, coleslaw, potatoes and a vegetable. That was Sunday dinner at our
house for years. There might be a variation on the vegetable/coleslaw,
but roast beef was Sunday dinner almost every week. For the occasional
variety, Mommy might make roast ham, fresh pork or
roast chicken.

My Grandmother's
homemade ham and lima bean soup. She would butter up of thick slice of
Italian bread, put it in the bowl and ladle that delicious lima bean soup
over top! Other things include my Gram's salmon patties, my Korean aunt's
Kimshee and rice, my aunt's caramel topped apple pie and from my Mom -
Craft's macaroni and cheese and Campbell's chicken noodle soup!

Yes... my great-grandma's
lemon cake. I only vaguely remember her, little bits and pieces, but when
I have that cake, I can remember all the times we had it when we were
over there.

Sunday roast, in
particular beef. My grandmother, who died when I was 8, used to make mouth-watering
roast beef, and every time I have that it reminds me of those times.

We were a fairly
poor family but Mom found tasty ways to serve ordinary foods. One meal
I'll always remember was her macaroni and cheese. It wasn't one of those
vapid 99 cent deals. Oh, no. She made hers with lots of grated cheese
and sprinkled cracker bits on the top and put it under the broiler for
a few minutes. Makes my mouth water just to think of it.

Yeah, but I really
shouldn't eat it...'Never Fail Fudge' (recipe on the back of marshmallow
fluff). You know how a lot of people complain about school getting cancelled
over the smallest storms and it wasn't like that years ago? I didn't need
it to be. Every time there was a half foot or more
my dad kept all eight kids home and made fudge. Made the shovelling a
lot easier.

Pot roast cooked
with potatoes, carrots and onions makes me think of my Grandmom's house
because we had that meal almost every Sunday after church. It was something
she could put on the stove before she left and it would be ready when
we got back.

Scalloped
Potatoes & Ham. My mom made them, and I loved it. I cannot match hers
to this day!!! When she says she's made some, I always get my butt down
to her house to get some!!!

Macaroni & Cheese with Fish sticks are a Friday during Lent.
Sunday after church pancakes, sausages, syrup and washing it all down
with a glass of milk and then having your stomach ache as the pancakes
expanded. Roast Beef, Mashed potatoes and green beans - Sunday dinners.
Coming home from school on a raining afternoon with the kitchen windows
all fogged up and
smelling Molasses, Snicker doodles or some other Cookie as you opened
the door. Can you tell I have a food addict problem?

There
are so many, Macaroni ans cheese(not from a box), soup and grilled cheese,
stew,toast, and Laura,do not forget Farrell's ice cream shop with hot
fudge, a good cup of tea with my sisters and mother. I'm sure there are
plenty more, but these are the basics.
