“RECIPES FROM YOUR FAMILY”

In all my years of writing on food & cooking, no recipe of mine (well, not mine) ever was more requested than that for My Dad’s Pancakes.

Q: I wish you would occasionally include recipes from your family. [Your father’s] mashed potatoes and pancakes (not together, but that’s an intriguing idea) are our family favorites. Best regards, Sandra

A: Sandra: How lovely of you to ask for these. Here are the recipes for—and stories about—My Dad’s Mashed Potatoes and My Dad’s Pancakes.
