I acknowledged in my book those who have helped to make my book possible. One of those is my mother. She taught me the love of cooking at a very early age. I am so grateful to her for all she has taught me. And she's still a fantastic cook!

Along those lines, I wish to share my great grandmother's cookbook, which I inherited. There is only one copy, hand written, and I have it. I'm in the process of making a cover for it. It's a cherished heirloom that will pass on to my daughter, Ash, when the time comes.
This book was written by Louisa E Pollard, wife of William S. Pollard of Fayetteville, Arkansas, in 1902 (on my dad's side). My grandmother, Sarah, was born in 1900. This book is one of my most cherished possessions. Who knows? Maybe I'll publish it into a retro cookbook.
