My mom was a lot of things, but not a big cook. <br /><br />One of my big favorites now is tomato sandwiches on toast. MMMMmmmm.

Still like meatloaf, but spaghetti only when in the mood!<br /><br />One sound that I loved as a child was trains in the distance. There was a railroad not too far away and the train sound always seemed reassuring in some way.Katyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06558961417235143567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19844602.post-32564186335014411272010-03-08T11:46:36.335-05:002010-03-08T11:46:36.335-05:00I've never had creamed tuna and peas on toast,...I've never had creamed tuna and peas on toast, but I imagine it tastes about like tuna casserole, so I would like it.<br /><br />My favorite food when I was a kid was our family's recipe for ham loaf. It's like a meatloaf, but made with ham and pork instead of beef. I recently tried making it a bit lighter, using ground turkey to replace some of the pork. It wasn't as good, but it was ok.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02301219387023496893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19844602.post-34457283250486581352010-03-08T08:07:50.676-05:002010-03-08T08:07:50.676-05:00Funny thing, when I first looked at the picture I ...Funny thing, when I first looked at the picture I thought, "Oh, somebody else eats creamed tuna and peas too!"

Then there was macaroni and cheese with "red pepper" which was actually paprika.<br /><br />Sounds of childhood; a cuckoo clock that never worked quite right, the clacking of the latches on our bedroom doors, and my favorite sound of all, my dad playing his harmonica.<br /><br />That creamed tuna and peas is looking mighty tasty. :)Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293816902877287168noreply@blogger.com
