My Grandma was a fantastic cook and made everything by hand.

She had a meat grinder like that. My job was to turn the crank when she was making sausage.

She even made all her own noodles by hand. She would roll out the dough on a huge cloth, cut them by hand, hang them on hangers and dried them out in the spare room/back porch. She would store them in Quaker Oat boxes.

I still use some of her recipes. Her cranberry pineapple jello is still our family’s Thanksgiving tradition.

My wife asked me tonight why I need so many cutting boards. She complains that she has to wash them by hand, but I didn't marry her for her cooking;)
