My Mother made the best coconut cake.  My father would kill the coconut and they would grind it up and it was so good.  I miss his cakes.  I make my coconut cake and buy bakers coconnut and boil a little coconut long enough to get the juice out of it and poke holes on top of cake and pour the juice on cake before I put icing on it.  I use the 7 minute ice recipe  and that is always good.  Hope everyone has a nice weekend and may God bless each of you.

I loved my grandmother's swiss steak and gravy.   :heart:   She is gone now and no one else can make. She made for me every year on my birthday and I sure do miss it.  :sad1:

My mom made a FANTASTIC liver and onions dish (which I learned the secret) because if you have never had it or had bad liver and onions...there is a certain way to make it and it is soooo good when you do it right! Thanks, Mom!

Isn't it something how our parents and grandparents made a dish...they even sometimes give us the recipe and we still can't seem to nail it?  My Mom makes the best home-made pizza...the crust is so light, buttery and fluffy.. her sauce is so simple yet so sweet.  It takes her all day to make it.  I ask for it for my birthday dinner and now my oldest even asks for it for her birthday dinner.  This last year my youngest was sick on my oldests b-day so my Mom busied herself all morning, afternoon and into the night than drove across town for delivery...Pretty cool for a 76 year old Oma!

My grandmother's fried chicken--had it every Sunday for years and years.  I've had a yen lately to try the strawberry cake my mother used to make--a box of strawberry Jello and strawberries mixed with a white cake mix and a strawberry buttercream frosting.  Can you say YUM!!!  I knew you could.  That cake recipe must have been pretty popular because it is in several church recipe collections I have that were put together back in the '70s--and I've seen a similar recipe in a Paula Dean collection.

I loved my grannies homeade biscuits. I would stuff myself wiith biscuits before I could even get to the main course of my meal. All of her food was delicious.

I never really appreciated it when she was alive, but now that she's passed away and I don't get it at least once a week, I really miss my mother's chicken.  She used to make it with this really amazing lemon sauce.

My grandmothers stuffed cabbage rolls and chicken noodle soup are my favorite foods.

My Mom is a pretty crummy cook.  But Grandma made the best beef stew and chocolate pie.  When we would go to visit, no matter what time we showed up it was always ready!   YUMMY!!!!  My Mom makes an earthquake chocolate cake, we call it that because it is always falling apart, sliding around on the plate (HA HA HA).  Sometimes  we call it spoon cake, because the flavor is good, just sad to look at, but you can eat it off the plate with a spoon, you usually cannot try to cut it up!  LOL

This might be an conflict because my favorite dish was made by my aunt, not my grandmother (mom don't bake) or.  She made this pudding that had to be baked and when it came out of the oven, she made everyone to be still (quiet) because it had risen so high that the slightest sound would cause it to sink or deflate.  The pudding had the look of an muffin but it wasn't.  When you cut it and pour the lemon custard over it, man o man, them were the days.   :angel11:
