When the author lost her mother, unexpectedly, in 2016, she was devastated. Months of searching for relief yielded very little in the way of real healing for her, that is until she stumbled upon the fact that when she was cooking, especially the family recipes that she and her mother and grandmother had cooked together, she felt differently. Cooking in her mothers kitchen reshaped her grief into something meaningful. Sharing her mothers food and her memories of preparing and serving those recipes with others, gave Christy purpose and helped her see that even in loss, great joy is still all around us. The recipes she shares are pure comfort food! She honors her mothers love of sweets first, and foremost, but she covers all the most important meals. The recipes are clear and easy to understand and follow, and they make warm, tasty, loving food that are especially good for sharing with the people you love and like. What readers have said: 'I felt like I met Judy in the pages of this book. The stories were sweet and familiar, and the recipes are just wonderful!' 'What a loving tribute to the love between a mother and daughter!''Judy cooked a lot like my mom cooked! I cant wait to make the apple dumplings-Mom made those, and I never knew how!''Christy has a witty and nostalgic way of remembering her family. Heartbreaking and funny, Christy is very candid in her discussion of grief, and so joyous in her healing.'
