My specialty is?? #mfrwauthor




We're at week 49. And I'm supposed to share the recipe of the best dish I cook. If you've followed the challenge you know about me and cooking. That I prefer to bake. Although I've created my share of meals, I don't claim to be a gourmet cook. There are some heritage recipes I'm still trying to master, others I've dabbled at. But, I know they'll never be as good as those lovingly prepared by my ancestresses.

But I digress. Before I answer the question, I have one of my own that has to be answered first. Who determines what qualifies as "best?" 

Is it the cucumber and onion salad at a church potluck dinner or the ambrosia taken to the historical group's picnic?  The family might claim the Yankee pot roast on a cold winter night followed by warm apple pie topped with a scoop of ice cream might be the best thing I cook.

Now I'm hungry. Maybe I"ll answer the question after a snack.
~till next time, Helen

    1. Have a flat of blackberries in my freezer. Have to try that. we usually only had apples (picked from our orchard) or wild blackberries from the mountains.

  2. Clean plates and few leftovers equal "best" in my family. Other than that, I have no idea, either.

    1. Smiled when I saw clean plates. That's the truth. Thanks for sharing.
