Hello all. As you might already know, we lost my Grandfather a few months back. My Grandmother is doing well and while she didn’t post as often, she said it helped her get her mind off things when she did. The family reminded her she could stop at any time. It appears, fueled by her love of politics, that she is back.
I want to give her a project to work on. Something she can do to honor my Grandfather. She loves to cook. He loved to eat. What would everyone think about a cookbook? I think, if she agrees, we could get it produced and sell it here on her blog. Nothing big. Just something to keep her amused and active. I imagine Margaret will submit a few of her recipes as well.
Responding to the poll below is not a commitment on your part. I am just curios.

Great idea and please include the pithy comments.

Yep. Sounds like a great idea…as does the extra $ for Planned Parenthood! I’m in.

I bet she and Helen have some good recipes and tips: for example, I would be so grateful for what older cookbooks called “wrinkles” detailing how to pull together a truly light pie crust. You could re-lead a church roof with mine and I need some help, preferably with stage-by-stage photos showing what the dough looks like just before Margaret would roll it out. Thank you, yes PLEASE. Sign me up for a copy!

Yes, it should have some political commentary “relish” recipes too. I have made several cookbooks, and the ones with stories are the most popular.

I’d love a cookbook from Helen and Margaret, especially if the ingredients include political humor, lol.

Would love one, but could it be made available in an ebook addition also? I have been converting or collecting recipes and putting them into my MacGourmet program and then can access them on my iPad. So an ebook would be out of this world.

Helen & Margaret along with Rachel Maddow were the ones who got me through the last election without eating my liver out, it was so stressful! If they do a cookbook, I will buy copies for all my commie-pinko-liberal friends for politically correct holiday presents and I will even send one to my very sadly unthinking childhood friend who drank the Limbaugh Kool-aid. I am truly glad to hear that Helen is doing okay after losing her dear husband. I think of her often and miss her blogs. Thanks for thinking of this idea.

Yes, it’s a great idea. And I especially like the ideas of having commentary in it and increasing the price by a dollar or two to give to Planned Parenthood!
