      I inherited my mother's recipe box when she passed. Not only do I have some of her favorite recipes, but some from my 2 grandmother's, and my Aunt Annie, and various others that gave mama recipes. It will stay in the family.

    For Christmas, I am making a gift for my kids: a 5x7 bamboo cutting board and decoupaging a photo of their grandparents and a favorite recipe card of hers. Theirs is the generation of disposables, so I don't know if they will appreciate it, but they will have it.

    Hi Jamie...loved your Grandmas cookbook. I have my Better Homes & Gardens cookbook that I got for a shower gift in 1972. Mine is filled with loads of drawings, pictures coloring book pages etc. from my niece and nephews from when they were all little. (the oldest nephew will be 41 this month) I plan to leave the cookbook to my son. ps I will be 70 in Jan! hugs to Otis! 😺😺😺

    Hard to pick just one as a favorite, but the grandma's cookbook is a great idea! I loved the dish towel rack and the fabric with the fall leaves. The tree is a super idea - like you said, put your last name at the bottom and voila!!! The mini frame is absolutely perfect for the dinner table. Really, I loved all the projects!!
