Did your Mom have special ingredients that made the foods she served specially good?
My Mom was a grad student for most of my life. The eternal student, she was it. But she still had time to develop a few secret ingredients.
Oatmeal instead of crumbs for Meatloaf. Even my (pre-ex)wife had to admit that was the way to go.
Macaroni boiled in milk for the macaroni and cheese. She also cooked it for a couple of hours in the double boiler. My own recipe for M&C is a complete rejection of hers, but hey, her's was what got me to love Mac and Cheese in the first place. lol
