I found a box of my mother's letters to her grandmother and in them she recounted how she learned to cook (after college) and she detailed the wonderful green J-ello that she made. She turned to be a fabulous cook...but she needed time to learn. I still have many of her handwritten recipe cards. Love them. History.<br /><br />Daryl / AveryDaryl Wood Gerber a.k.a.

Must be in the blood. :) The way your grandparents met is adorable, and that spiral bound book of your great aunt Ka's recipes, bless her heart, odd as they are, must have been a trip to read through.
