Grandma’s Recipes (2021)

For the second year in a row I decided to continue the tradition of making some recipes from my grandmother’s collection. This year I made her Savory Noodles and Pork (substituted beef) and her Orange Chiffon Pie. 

Everything came out really well and it remains a lovely way to connect to the past.

Brooklyn Bridge Park

We spent our last afternoon in New York taking in the breathtaking view from the Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Walking through a lovely neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Squibb Park.

A glimpse of the Brooklyn Bridge.

The Statue of Liberty was visible in the distance.
