It appears that my humble little blog has reached the attention of a French website (http://en.petitchef.com/) asking if they could add my blog!
I guess this means that I will have to dust off my French cookbooks and start posting new recipes. Thank Goodness, I just found a new (to me) vintage French cookbook a couple of weekends ago at Goodwill. If you haven't visited your local Goodwill to check out their vintage cookbooks....Run....There....NOW! It is a virtual library for amazing, diverse cookbooks.
Anyway, thought I would share the great news with all of my loyal readers. You know who you are!

More recipes tomorrow!!

The Beginning
I was born into a family that is half German and half Czech. Despite the slight differences in location, the cooking styles from the Bavarian region of Germany are very similar to Czechoslovakia. As I grew up, I was surrounded by the wonderful aromas wafting from my family's kitchens.
Caraway seed dancing delightfully with rye in fresh baked bread. Sauerkraut cradled around plump dumplings and roast pork. The sweetness of kolaches-their fillings spilling out onto the counter-Plum, apricot, cottage cheese and pineapple. Sweet delicacies of my youth.
My youth has since passed and I am now the keeper of my heritage. My willing charges-- my grandchildren--are learning about my family heritage one spoonful at a time. Through the stained recipes they will learn about my years of living in Bavaria, my family who came from the "Old Country", and learn to cook wonderful meals for their future families.
I invite you along on this journey of exploring my diverse cookbook-- recipes from Germany (of course), Czechoslovakia, the Far East, Africa, Southern delicacies, and more. All the recipes you will find on this site are tried and true--guaranteed to delight your family as they have delighted mine!
As my great grandma would say, "Guten Essen!" (meaning, good food!)
