I’ve never managed a proper box of index cards to organize my memories, but I do have a sloppy notebook full of scribbles and annotated clippings. After my dad died and my son was born, I embarked on a project to document my recipes by creating a digital archive so that one day, my son will be able to figure out what his mother did to make that thing he’s really craving. This is where I share those recipes with you.
