I sure do miss Grandma's Strudel!!(Serbian) Used to start out with a ball of dough no bigger than a soft ball and jiggling it with her fingers, stretch that dough paper thin draping it over the edge of our family dining table!! adding that cinnamon apple filling or raisin and rolling it up for the baking pan!! dang that was good!!

Mom used to go on crazy rants because she could never do it without ripping the dough!! Grandma used to laugh and it upset my dad because he has to live with it after grandma left!! Oh man those were good times!!

Sounds amazing!

Back in the day, Mom joked that Dad married her only because her mom made the best strawberry shortcake. Always with a wink of the eye. Grandma’s shortcake was spectacular, but Mom figured it out, too. Both were excellent cooks and bakers. I have tried to keep up the excellence.
