I chose to share this recipe because my grandma would always make this when I’m feeling down or just not having a good day. When she was young her mother would do this as well when she wasn’t having a good day and in a way it made me feel closer to her. Now that she isn’t here anymore it’s something that I just make for myself or anyone that isn’t having a good day or even feeling. This is something that comforts me and in my own way by giving it to others when they’re down I hope that it comforts them the same way it does for me. My grandma told me that this was something her whole family would make for each just to put a smile on their face and she would love for me to share it with others and continue on with this recipe so it could never die.
