Serve Up the Familiar
“When it comes to the feast, we are very traditional,”
says Nancy, “because I want my family to understand
what tradition is. The food that tastes familiar is
the food that’s going to taste the best. My husband’s
ultimate compliment is, ‘This tastes just like
my mother’s.’ We joke that his taste buds are old.”“Every year, we have
Scalloped Oysters,
because I grew up
having them. Even if my
children don’t like
oysters, they have to
have a taste.”“I come from 13
generations of farmers,
and I’ve been freezing
summer corn for 45
years. I always freeze it
in August, and we have
Corn Salad with Bacon
& Honey at Thanksgiving
and Christmas.”Composed
