Eggnog and Persimmon Icy Cream
My first memory of tasting Eggnog was when I was a little girl. Family friends invited me to travel to visit their Grandmother that lived in the country. Their Granny lived on a farm with cows, chickens and a big red barn. Whenever I taste eggnog it brings me back to this place. Make Eggnog and Persimmon Icy Cream and share.

It’s not your Mamas, ‘Tater Pie
As a foodie, I am easily distracted and may while away an afternoon looking at cookbooks. A few of my favorite cookbooks are the really old ones. The books that were written, long before all of our fancy kitchen devices.
