Old Fashioned New England Yankee Recipes and Cooking

Living in New England is an astounding experience. We enjoy all four seasons, and each one brings a different experience at the table.

I grew up in a very historic town in Connecticut. When younger, I often babysat in homes that had beehive brick ovens and slanted floorboards. My imagination was stirred trying to envision what it was like to live in the 1700's and 1800s and do my cooking over an open Colonial hearth.

Travel throughout the 6 New England States and you will experience the diverse traditions unique to each state; Pure Maple Syrup, Vermont Cheese, fresh Beach Plum Jams and Jellies; Corn Chowders and more.

My grandmother lived to be 101, and passed down many of her favorite recipes to me, which I'd like to share with you.

Enjoy traveling to New England vicariously, sit a spell, stay for a bite to eat ~ we'll keep the coffee warm for you!
