So but you helped me 31 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: out on buy three recipes. But let's tell me about 32 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: the book. Okay, okay. First of all, I just want 33 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: to thank you for having me on your show. I 34 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: feel really blessed and on it to be on the show. Um. 35 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: This book, UM was thought of because of the recipes 36 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: that were given to me by my mother, which took 37 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: her whever in me. And once I got him, I 38 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: had to figure out measurements because you know, they never 39 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: get the measure So the thing was fivoring out measurements 40 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: and I don't even know what they used because she 41 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: never gave me any measurements. So I just started asking 42 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: her for a lot of recipes like, hey, you know, 43 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: I remember grandma used to make that pound cake? How 44 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: does she make that pound cake? What the great grandma 45 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: used to make? So I just decided to put them 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: all in a book. I wanted to give my kids 47 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: something to pass on to their children and hopefully for 48 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: many generations to come. Well, I'm changing something. It is 49 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: so funny that she talks like that. But older people 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: who make you know if you because you never noticed 51 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: that when your kid, you know, are you? Are you? 52 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: All you see is the results of that of that 53 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: baking or cookie moment. But when you go ask your 54 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: grandmother or even your mother, depending on how old she is, 55 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 1: how she made that, she gonna actually be Frustrated're gonna 56 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 1: frustrated because she don't have time to be telling you 57 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: whether that was a up or a quarter teaspoon, or 58 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: because they just grab stuff.
