Welcome!

Well ladies...and maybe a man or two here or there. It's time to start this little project.
I have decided to begin a blog posting family recipes from all different generations as a way for us to connect.
I think no one will argue (especially those steming from the Hall family) that some of our best memories are based around the holidays and family gatherings when we all come together, gossiping in the kitchen and picking at the food while we prepare our favorite family dishes.
We remember the moment as children when we were allowed to help out in preparing the feast, although I dont know about you but I got the lousy jobs...like peeling 5 lbs. of potatoes...
but it didn't matter...I loved being in the kitchen with all the girls and pretending to know what I was doing...
Over the years most of those recipes still come together for our family affairs...although some recipes are getting lost along the way...and phone calls and emails are sent to everyone to try and track down an old recipe that we remembered as kids. So thats where I have decided to step in...
I have decided to collect recipes that hold a special place to someone and post them here...some may bring back memories, and some will be from other families that may become a new family tradition in yours...




So come on ladies...and those few men...send me your recipes and let's get cookin!
