Recipes run the spectrum from those from my own numbers-running bookie, pickle-packing Grandma Mary to the special Pittsburgh cookie table section featuring thirty of my favorite cookie table cookies.
Most were on handwritten recipe cards, in worn notebooks, and penciled on scraps of paper stuck in cookbooks, all kept so dear.
These are recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation and gathered over the years from my family, my husband\'s family, and many close friends.
