Tales of the Lost Cook Book

I just obtained my mothers cookbook. Like I have said before
she was a fantastic cook. And I am really excited to have her cook book 
and to be able to make the food we remember so well. 
You know that moment when you are in a new environment
 and you smell something that takes you back to a good memory?
That is the power of cooking!
To come home to a house that smells like something from the past.
To taste your memories. 
I'd like to make some things this Christmas that my family
always made around the holidays.
Anise Cookies
Pies
Chicken Cordon Bleu 
Twice Baked Potatoes 
Cranberry Sauce
Mom's layer'd Chip dip
Tiramisu
Stuffed Mushrooms
Stuffed Baked Clams
Appetizer platters Mimi Style   
Yum!!! 
I'll follow up this post with at least one new recipe.
Enjoy <3
