I live with my Mom and Dad and their weimaraner "Spencer". My Dad has multi infarct dementia
We all come from Vermont and we grew up during the 60's and 70's. One of our favorite things is cooking and so we try and stay sane by writing about cooking. I have an old cookbook from Rutland VT called "Out of Vermont Kitchens that we are going to try and cook from and see what the food tastes like.
The cookbook has some prepared foods in some of the recipes. But we will try and adapt them perhaps to modern cusine.
We also try other recipes but will dive into our Vermont roots as often as we can.
Marion Ballou Smith
The daughter of Orris and Margaret (Mageen) Ballou, Marion Ballou Smith grew up in Rutland, Vermont, graduated from Mount Holyoke College (1914), and taught botany and mathematics. In 1927 she married Esme A.C. Smith, a businessman in Rutland. Active in local business and civic affairs, Smith was the co-compiler, with Alice Chaffee Bowker and Ruth Sutton, of a fund-raising cookbook entitled Out of Vermont Kitchens, published in 1939, to benefit the Trinity Mission of Trinity Church in Rutland, and the Women's Service League of St. Paul's Church in Burlington, Vermont.
We raised a few rows of dry beans last summer. What's very fun about the beans is that we don't have to soak them. They puff up almost as soon as we begin to simmer them in water.
