Both of my grandmothers passed away when I was really little so I did not have a chance to make a lot of memories with them. But I love when my mama and my Aunt Kitty share some of their stories with me. So even though I don’t have many memories of cooking with Grandma Hansen in the kitchen I do with my mama and Aunt Kitty. And fortunately I know she is there in spirit when I use her mixing bowls or her soup bowls. So last week I broke out the soup bowls and made one of my favorites soups!
