Next National Convention is Really Cooking
DUBLIN, OH— In keeping with the melting pot theme Heartland Cradlesong, the 2007 Friends of the Creche Convention (November 8-10, 2007, Dublin/Columbus, OH), we are planning dinners and a luncheon to reflect our heritage. Recipes submitted will be published in a cookbook available at the convention. We would like to know the origin, ethnicity or family connection, and accounts of the role food plays or played in our family celebrations.
In our family, my grandma’s fruitcake that she made as a relative newlywed from 1917 on is essential as is the French beef burgundy and German red cabbage, dearly loved by our son and daughter-in-law. David’s and my German grandmothers served tooth-breaking hard anise cookies with wine. Every Christmas Eve, as a tribute to the joy we felt at the birth of our oldest child, I prepare shrimp Creole for supper, the dish that was served to me on the night of her birth 40 years ago.
