Just an aside... I am going through a photocopy of a cookbook compiled...

...over many, many decades by the grandmother of one of the teachers at the boys' school. It is a slew of handwritten recipes from this grandmother, and her mother as well.

I am somewhat blown away by it, as nothing like this exists in my family. It is very difficult to decipher at times, but a few things ring out loud and clear: she loved to cook, and she loved to cook for her family and friends. It is very touching to read her notes about how much certain family members liked certain recipes, and that she took the time to write 90% of them out long-hand.

Very comforting, in a way.
