Welcome to My Olde Country Home where the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The aroma of Christmas wafts through the air. Scents of gingerbread, cookies baking, oranges, pine, and spices fill the room with Christmas memories. Have you ever noticed how a certain scent can take you back to a time long ago? That is what you will find in this recipe book. Inside these pages you will find many of the old traditional recipes that have been passed down through generations plus a special section dedicated to my Grandma Meier. In this section you will find old vintage Christmas recipes created in the 1950's from a baking club she was in. All are in their original form. If you love vintage recipes these are for you! At the end is a section I wrote of Christmas memories with grandma that are so special to me. Grandma is the one who passed down the love of baking to me. Baking has always been an important part of Christmas for me. There is nothing better than to see loved ones delighted to receive special home baked goods made with love by you!
As you are baking these recipes I hope they evoke Christmas memories for you and perhaps create new ones. Merry Christmas from my home to yours. May your home be filled with love, thankfulness, and scents of the season.
