Hand-Me-Down Family Recipes by Kaye Spencer #familyrecipes #recipes #oldfashionedrecipes

Hand-me-down family recipes offer more than mere sustenance. They give us a dash of history, a pinch of nostalgia, and a sprinkling of posterity.


I am fortunate to be the recipient of several old family recipes and recipe books. One of my older recipe books belonged to my Aunt Irene (b. 1926) that she used in her high school Home Economics class.

"All About Home Baking" c. 1933

I've been adding family recipes to my website and also to a Board on my Pinterest account. But this takes time, and I'm moving at a snail's pace, because so many other tasks pop up and distract me. My intent for 2019 is to add at least one recipe a month.

This is an example recipe that shows the format I've designed. (not an 'old' recipe)

I've kept the original wording and measurements from the recipes. I have 14 Hand-Me-Down Family recipes on my Pinterest Board, but only five of them on my website HERE. *sigh* Again, it's a matter of available time.

Anyway, if you're so inclined, you will find my Hand-Me-Down Family recipes on Pinterest HERE.

On a side note: I'm experiencing an ongoing issue with commenting and responding to comments on Blogger. If I am unable to respond to your comment, I will come back to this article and add comments in this area. Please check back, because I do read and respond to every comment. I appreciate the time and interest you've taken to write a comment.


Until next time,
