What can be better than gathering and storing old family recipes to share with the next generation. I love cookbooks and recipes as well as cooking and baking. I love trying old recipes from the family that bring back memories. One of the things you might try including in your family research is old favorite recipes and the traditions around those recipes. Put together a family recipe book to share with all your family. For this throwback Thursday I have included the post of my Mom's eggless cake. Try it and enjoy.
