I come from a long line of Bills. We’ve got Bills, Billys and Wills. Both Grandma Joyce’s and Great-Grandma Mary’s husbands are part of this list. So the question I’ve got, which Bill is the Bill?

Magic Marshmallow Crescent Puffs
This recipe came straight from Great-Grandma Mary’s collection, but it wasn’t dated. This got me wondering…when did Pillsbury start putting biscuits and crescents into cans? Was that during her lifetime?!
“Best” Cookies
As I comb through this stash of recipes I absolutely love finding handwritten notes along the way. I feel like these notes give me a glimpse of what my grandmas had on their mind. They are like a sneak peak into their journal.
Jo Eden’s Cream Cheese Pie
I think this pie made its way to plenty of parties in my childhood, but what I know is that it was at a beach front Fourth of July party when I was in middle school. I couldn’t get over the meticulously placed berries that came together in the form of an American flag. I really could not get over it…I may have taken mental notes on what the exact order is for the berries to make the perfect american flag cake.
Peach Brown Betty
This world is full of grandmas. Obviously my challenge here is to focus on my family’s recipes but I’m going to default to a different grandma’s recipe collection in this case.
