Remembering When....

Hi all!
It's been a long time since I've spent time on this blog, but hopefully I'll be able to devote more time to it in the coming months.
I've also been having some wonderful times in a Facebook Group called Remembering When...in Lancaster... I'll have to post the link for any of you that are interested. Sooner or later, we knew it would come around to the foods and recipes of our childhoods :) I have posted a recipe there and also have posted it here as well.
I am so lucky to have been born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the time that I was. So many wonderful memories and special times.
That's one of the pluses to getting older I suppose LOL


Here is a link to the group.... check it out if you want to relive some incredible past days!
