My mom has influenced me the most. She is a fantastic meat and potatoes cook, and an incredible pie baker. I definitely learned to cook by watching my mom.

My mom was a great cook. She grew up in the depression and learned many ways to get creative when she didn’t have all the ingredients of a recipe. The old saying is right…the heart of the home is the kitchen. My mom taught me the art of showing love with a homemade meal.

My mom has been my biggest influence in the kitchen. I grew up watching her make something out of nothing, and it always tasted good! I’m thankful that I was able to learn to cook by watching her, and hope I can pass it on to my own daughter!

My mom wasn’t actually much for cooking when I was growing up, but she did always make lunches and loved to bake, which is probably where I got that from. I aspire to have the creativity, patience and positive attitude my mom had. I don’t know any other kids in high school that could bring friends home for lunch to have a carpet picnic in the living room with their mom. Thanks for doing such a beautiful giveaway!

My favorite memories of being in the kitchen are with my Gramma. She taught me how to make pies, cookies, and heavenly mac n cheese!

My grandmother came here from Russia when she was just a teenager. She had no written recipes; she learned to cook from her mother and grandmother. My sisters and I used to watch her bake mandel-bread (sort of like biscotti). She never measured anything — she would just say things like, “Now add some flour, but not too much!” She knew how to feel the right amount of ingredients, depending on the humidity in the kitchen or other factors. One time my sister tried to measure exactly what my grandmother was doing, but it never came out exactly right! Sometimes I feel like a slave to recipes, but I just don’t seem to have the “magic touch” that my grandmother had. (By the way, she lived to be 101 and was still baking mandel-bread up until the end!)

I remember making sugar cookies each Christmas Eve with my Nana. Then we all played bingo for prizes. It was a blast. Thanks for the chance.sweetascandy579 at yahoo dot com

One of my favorite memories with my mom in the kitchen is baking Christmas cookies. We still get together every year.
Margaret says
My grandmother influenced me in the kitchen. She lived behind us for years, and then moved in with us for awhile. She made the best meals. She is almost 80 now, and lives with my uncle. Her mind is so sharp. When you call her to ask about a recipe she knows most of them by memory. My favorites of hers were rolls and tamales.
