 how we lived and how we are living our lives. It seems like part of accomplishing that is collecting and sharing some of your family's recipes. Like many of us, you don't always have access to that recipe easily. There are moments where you might hit some bumps in the road or sometimes a dead end or a red herring and trying to nail down a family recipe. Please tell us, how did you go about researching, testing, and writing the recipes you feature in your cookbook?
