Reactions to story from Baking Delights: Baking breads and treats for your family
Grandparents:Lifestyles theme day
http://www.bakingdelights.com/ 2008/ 09/ 07/ grandparentslifestyles-theme-day/
Preserving family recipes is an important part of preserving history. When the recipes are passed down so are family stories and memories. It is important to give your kids continuity between the generations. Foods have always been one way to do that. Family traditions are passed down at holidays and special occasions and generally there is alot of memory sharing around the holiday table. Kids listen and learn about thier family history and I think it gives them a sense of security and solidity, and helps them to know who they are and where they are going.

The Lifestyles channel celebrates Grandparents
http://www.tangledthread.com/the-lifestyles-channel-celebrat...Did you know that September 7th is Grandparent’s Day? In honor of that, the b5media Lifestyles Channel pays tribute to their own grandparents with memories, recipes and values handed down from generation to generation. At Quilting and Patchwork, Mary Emma Allen writes a tribute to her grandmother for a quilting heritage. When Linette at Mother Earth’s Garden thinks about her grandparents, she has many fond memories in the garden. One of her favorite recipes is her grandma’s recipe for canning pickled beets. Mary Emma at One Book Two Book reminisces about the reading heritage she received from her grandparents. Cyndi at Layers Upon Layers no longer has grandparents, and hasn’t had any for a long time. Although she loved her grandparents deeply, she says she never really thought that much about what their feelings were towards her…until she had her own first grandbaby and felt the overwhelming love just flow out to continue the cycle of life through the generations. Katelyn from Simply Thrifty is glad her great-grandma passed thriftiness down to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Susan at PlayLibrary shares suggestions for several books for grandparents including activity books for grandparents and grandchildren to enjoy together and memory books for grandparents to give to their grandchildren, which are sure to become family treasures handed down from generation to generation. Chloe from Tangled Thread along with her mom, created a series of memorial church textiles to celebrate her grandmother’s life. And at MomGadget, I remember the influence and memories with my grandparents that help mold the person I am today. Other Grandparent posts around the channel at - Marriage Actually and Baking Delights Other channel notes of interest: Some of you use Picnik site to edit photos, Mad Cropper is running a contest giving away 3 year-long Picnik Premium memberships worth $25/year. Weary Parent is conducting a giveaway that helps mothers get organized. image: Stock.xchg Share This
