Just the Recipe for this Waldorf Salad

One interesting thing I noticed while going through my Grandma’s recipes. Over time, especially in the past 15 years, companies have reduced the sizes of products. Example: The “typical” can of tuna that was 6.5 ounces in Grandma’s day, is either 5 or 5.5 ounces now. Hence why I use my sister site to post just the recipe, so I can make allowances for any changes or substitutions needed to account for modern adjustments to measurements and food availability.

Grandma’s Sugar Cookie Recipe 1950’s

Grandma’s Sugar Cookie Recipe. I have all the recipes and recipe books from my Grandmother’s kitchen. The recipe cards are quite precious to my sister and I, as many of our memories of our Grandparents center around the kitchen and making cookies with Grandma during every visit.

I have all the recipes and recipe books from my Grandmother’s kitchen. The recipe cards are quite precious to my sister and I, as many of our memories of our Grandparents center around the kitchen and making cookies with Grandma during every visit. Especially Valentine’s day. A display of cookies in different shades of pink frosting. Coloring the different frostings were my favorite part of cookie baking.
