About

I’m Cara, and this blog is a place where I am progressively publishing our family recipe collection.  Our family, and therefore this recipe collection, is a cross-cultural one (Scandinavian and U.S.).  Additionally, I’ve had immigrant and refugee students from all over the world in my Swedish language classes in Stockholm,  and we all prepared and shared food as one of the gathering points in class.  Many of these recipes from many cultures became fast favorites in our family over the years.

Now that our family is scattered geographically, it is wonderful to be able to publish our family favorites on the web for easy access from wherever any one of us happens to be.  Additionally, the index cards and file folders I’ve saved for years are showing their age and use, and many are barely legible with all the creases and food stains they’ve acquired over time.  So my hope is to transfer them here!

If you’ve happened by this site, I hope you find something delightful to cook up and enjoy!
