I have been pondering this all day. The woman who has influenced me most in the kitchen is my paternal grandmother. She was round and merry and always has something wonderful to share. Her soups were amazing and I always looked forward to the homemade peanut butter chocolate chip cookies shipped to us in an ice cream bucket across the country. I still make them and think of her and smile.I also became a new follower and voted for you! Thanks for sharing your love of food and life.

My favorite memory in the kitchen our family tradition of decorating gingerbread houses each Christmas. When were were little my Mom made really ornate ones and now with my own kids we just make the premade ones but it has been just as fun and full of good memories.Suzanne R

My mother is the woman who has influenced me most in the kitchen. I've taken her fear of trying new things and giving a dish a whirl without a recipe, and used it to bolster my own creativeness and devil-may-care tries at inventing recipes.My favorite memory in the kitchen involves the woman who baby-sat me from the time I was 4 months old until I was 4 years old and started kindergarten. She had a peach tree in her backyard and would can her own peaches. I clearly remember the taste and smell of Single's Peaches. (S&W actually makes some that come close.)This is a wonderful contest! I'm so glad that I saw a tweet about it (@ElizabethSigns). Thanks for making me think and helping me remember that wonderful woman and her peaches. On that note, Janice Single, if you're out there on teh interweebs, I remember you & your grandma very fondly.

1. My grandmother Ida, my Aunt Teresa and when she does cook my Mom, when she cooks it’s always good! 2. It’s not a memory yet, but this summer my Grandma will finally teach me how to make her eggplant antipasto!

My mama is my cooking inspiration because she makes it seem easy and fun and NORMAL. She’s also a great cook.

1. My step mom has been really inspirational for me. She cooked for a huge family, which is a feat in itself. She also never measured anything and never had a failed recipe. Never! 2. I once got so frustrated with a pie crust that my mother suggested I stop and use a store bought crust. I’ve been doing that ever since.Laura K.

I remember sitting in my jammies with my grandmother on her kitchen floor, backs leaning up against her maple cabinets, drinking chocolate milk before bed. (After Thanksgiving our mugs would be “Santa” mugs.) I miss her.

The owmna who influenced me in the kitchen the most is my MOm, who is a wonderful cook and lovingly prepared meals for the paople she loves to this day. An important memory is doing the dishes with my sister and laughing so hard we peed ourselves. We still do that! And I am a woman, but I will very likely share the prize with my family. Great giveaway!

One of my favorite memories in the kitchen is making “turkey” cookies with my Grandmother every Thanksgiving Eve. These were decorated turkey shaped sugar cookies and they were just hideous but she always complimented my handy work like I had created the Monet of desserts.
