One of my favorite breakfasts at Grandma’s house was cold leftover rice pudding.

Grandma made a double batch of the pecan crunch so we’d have plenty to snack on.

The grown-ups thought we kids wouldn’t like this because it tasted like coffee. Boy, were they wrong!

After a day of apple picking at the orchard, Grandma would make this cobbler bursting with fruit.

Who needed the ice-cream man when we had Gram’s ice-cream sandwiches?

Grandma served this on busy days because she could make the gelatin in advance and simply buy ice cream.

Grandma served this one Thanksgiving when she wanted something a little different. It became our favorite.

I thought this pudding was magic because it had a brownie layer on top and chocolate pudding underneath.

Grandma’s stunning trifle was a real conversation stopper at the dinner table.

To make this rich and creamy mousse completely irresistible, Grandma used two kinds of chocolate.
