Flipping a page, freshman Molly Griffin looks through a family recipe book that has been passed down through generations. (By Damara Stevens)

“My great grandmother, grandmother, aunt and mother were and are great cooks and have been collecting recipes for years and have all owned restaurants. The recipe collection is huge. Lots of recipe books, handwritten recipe cards and notes in notebooks are around our house. My mother started a recipe book when I was born and kept adding to it since I was little. Family has always been super important to us and food is always at the center of getting together. I have a lot of recipes from both of my parents’ sides of the family. My parents’ families have been friends for a long time and so we combine them all for our get togethers. My favorite thing is cooking with my grandmothers. I love to bake with my dad’s mother and cook with my mom’s mother. I use our recipes regularly. My mom has always wanted me to know how to take care of myself and be able to cook for any kind of event. Since I have been able to be home by myself I have been helping or making dinner on my own. My parents work a lot  and so it helped them out to have dinner ready when they got home. I have always been collecting and many times I get recipes from family in my birthday cards or new recipe books.”
