Holiday Cooking

Bahh Humbug!!!  Holidays are not for kids, they are for the grown up's who only get to eat sweets til they drop this time of year.  Diets and eating right goes right out the window when the food starts to cook!!  On the request board this year is for me to try to make my Mom's famous Banana Pudding!!! Yeah, Okay!!!  I haven't made it in years.  I think Mama was in the kitchen with me and coaching me along as she was making one of her other sweet treats.  From Thanksgiving through the first of the year our kitchen had the best smell and the sweet treats and the good food was on the stove 24/7.

She loved to watch people enjoy the food she made.  Trust me, there was always a house full for her to watch!!   My Dad's always said it was a tight race between the banana pudding and her fried apple pies!  I can remember one Christmas when my oldest was small he and Daddy slipped around and got coffee and milk and took the whole plate with the apple pies on it to the back porch.  Daddy had them a little place to stay warm and they were having themselves a snack!  I sure do miss my folks, make you some memories this year.
