Yesterday was my first attempt at making a traditional, authentic Gumbo. I acquired the recipe from Alison Heller, our Cape May County Regional Editor. It was her family’s secret (or not so) recipe which her mother learned from her years living in New Orleans while being pregnant with Alison. She didn’t have a picture to go with the recipe because as she put it “I haven’t mastered the art of making Roux.”

Thanksgiving would not be the same without John’s homemade apple pie, and my kids would disown me if the customary loaf of Irish Soda bread did not appear in their college mailboxes in March. As is the case with many families, our food traditions have provided a comforting and familiar ritual that we all cherish.
