I'm compiling all of our family recipes into a binder for each of my young adult kids for Christmas. Many of these recipes go back to at least the early 1900s, handed down over the generations. Most would be considered unhealthy by today's standards.

Adding this to my list!
This week my Friday Middle Grade Book Rec is Hungry Bones by Louise Hung, with an amazing cover by Sija Hong. Ghosts, history, friendship… it’s one of my top reads of the year! #kidlit
