I remember as a child, I would spend a few weeks of the summer with my Grandmom and Grandad down in New Jersey, South Jersey, in the Pine Barrons on the Mullica river. My Grandmom was the best cook and everything had to be so precise. She was so kind, soft, and gentle that every time I serve from her recipe collection it warms my heat to tell my guests about her.

She would hand us a basket and ask us to fill it full of wild blueberries from the forest and upon our return she’d bake us our favorite Blueberry Buckle. I miss you Grandmom. …Laurie
