Grama's Recipes From Life by Julie Janson

Grama's Recipes From Life
By Julie Janson

The first line of Julie's Apple Pie recipe reads, "To make the best apple pie you must first send your 10 kids up to the orchard to pick some ripe yellow transparent apples..." Julie wrote these stories of her childhood for her grandchildren. But I think old and young alike will fall in love with Julie's stories and unique writing style.

The Old Family Home - All art work by Julie

Julie grew up during the depression on a farm just outside Midway, Utah, up in the mountains above Salt Lake City. These stories are a reflection of those times when Julie was first put to work as a tiny child doing her part to make the family go. Lucinda, her sister also has an article on this web site in the self reliant peoples section where she tells of growing up during the Great Depression. A reference or two is made to "Grandma Lundin." This is Julie's mother. If you like what Julie has to say in this section, I'm sure you will enjoy Lucinda's story as well.
