When I read the title of your post I knew it would be about our dear mother but I didn't read it until today because I wanted to be sure to read it when I had time to take in every word and relive the memories without any distractions. I too had tears in my eyes because of how you eloquently captured the essence of our mother and because of the beautiful pictures which I have not seen before. Elizabeth, when I see the plums at this time of year I, inevitably, think of the plum jam. As if I knew this subject would come up, I recently made gnocchi stuffed with my plum jam and, of course, the breadcrumb sauce. Thank you for sharing these loving memories.
Very well written Elizabeth... It brings tears to my eyes for sure. I can actually taste the plum jam as I read your recap of your memories. Thank you for being the food historian of our family. I was in such a hurry to " get out " that I left many of my memories on the table feeling sad about that but I'm happy that you are capturing them for me so that I can relive them. Love you sister dearest ❣️ Lucia
