I have been blessed with our own children and many more over the years. Cooking and baking is a family gathering with my own and all of their friends. They are in their 30’s and 40’s and I am teaching their children to cook like my dad! My step dad who raised me was Sicilian and an amazing chef. Unfortunately some of these family recipes have been lost over the years. I can make the pasta dishes and others like he did. But the baking I miss and long for because they are memories from sitting at the kitchen table rolling out cookies and drinking cider or hot chocolate. To have dad back would be better than any cookie recipe.
