November Meeting: American Heritage

 Family Recipes

Alexander McNair members and seniors met together to learn about the American Heritage program and about their family heritages. This year's program was to learn about how families keep recipes and pass them down from generation to generation. 

Mrs. Moll, Senior Vice President, shared a recipe from her childhood that was passed down from her grandmother. It was discussed how measurements were different in the past.

Members were excited that they could share some of their favorite recipes with each other.

Ms. Sammons, Senior President, shared the Sammons-Smith recipe book, which has recipes from all of the parents' families combined. Some of the recipes were written by the great-grandma and grandma of the members. Others were newer and were printed from the internet.

 Each family brought a recipe that could be shared.

Attendees: 6 members (5 pee wees), 4 seniors
