Let's do our part for breast cancer
FOREWORDWelcome to Gail’s (Gran’s) cookbook.
Gail was known for her love of cooking and sharing that passion with family and friends. Whether it was a big occasion or any given day, Gail made sure everyone was fed to the brim. So much so, it was not uncommon to find Travis, Harley and Blake laying on the cold tiles to sooth their full bellies after demolishing one of Gail’s creations. There was also no such thing as a small slice of cake when it came to dessert time. You had to take it how it came!
Gail would happily show anyone how she created a particular meal, fondly known for following taste and instinct over a measurement or recipe. To help out, ‘Gail Quantities’ have been included in the conversion chart at the back of the book to cover all bases!
The special red cookbook has seen better days, so what better way to share some of the history that lay within its pages than compiling the handwritten and much-loved recipes from Gail and friends to keep the memories alive.
Between the pages of this book, you will see a snippet of the recipes collected by Gail over the years. Some have been included with an interpretation of suggested volumes and methods. Others are in their original form and well, there are a few simply for the memories… Unable to be translated! Keen eyes will also spy the many hidden and partly formed recipes and various tales in each page.
These short words are unable to fully encompass the connection and togetherness that Gail’s cooking provided to all the Over family and friends. However, it is the hope that this book will create generations of conversations, memories and inspire more delicious meals to be made and shared for a long time to come.
