Dear Grandma,
Have I ever told you that your turkey meatballs were my first favorite food?
When I was a kid, you made us turkey meatballs every time we visited you in your little condo on the beach. We would drive the eight hours from Sacramento, and whole time I would think about your meatballs. Sometimes I'd swear that I could smell them once we got off of the highway.
Even though I don't eat meat anymore, your meatballs continue to inspire me. I make all kinds of "balls" these days - out of beans, tempeh, nuts, and more - but I'm always trying to recreate that flavor that reminds me of arriving in my favorite place - your condo on the beach.
Love,
Rebecca
Dear Abuelita*,
ReplyDeleteThank you for cooking for the family. Your cooking is the best food I've ever tasted in my whole entire life. I love it when you cook on a monday because only on that day we get to eat your wonderful beans and rice.I think your beans and rice are the best. Thank you once more.
*Abuelita is the spanish way to say grandma.
We wanted to let you know that lots of people in our class have abuelitas too!

Hi Bria! We wish you would give us more details about what kinds of food your mom is really good at making. What is her specialty? Quah'mar stated that we would all vote for your mom on a cooking show if she promised all of us a plate!
DeleteDear MawMaw,
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the good food you cook for me. I love the breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert you buy and cook. I like the way you take your time and cook. I like when you let us help you cook. The best food you ever cooked was BBQ chicken and spaghetti. I love when you bake cookies. The cookies I like are sugar cookies and rainbow. Can I please help you bake cookies again? It was fun.
Hello Khullie,
DeleteRoom 7 is wondering who MawMaw is. We just took a survey of our whole class, and 100% of us have already tried experimenting with cooking or baking. We would all like to have a sugar cookie right about now...still about an hour until lunch and our bellies are rumbling!
Thank you Mommy for cooking all the delicious foods you made me over the past nine years. I love everything you do for me. You are special to me. I love the way you make Spanish rice with black beans and white rice with all those seasonings you put on it. I also love when you let me help you and let me sneak a bite before anybody else. Most of all I love your Mickey Mouse pancakes with extra syrup. I never thought you could make your meals any better but you always do.
ReplyDeleteHi its diamon I like your post you gave a lot of details
DeleteThank you mom for cooking the crunchiest softest fish ever. Thank you for the best flavored rice and the great stuffed turkey on Thanksgiving. Thank you for your divine meatball grinder and crunchy fried chicken. Thank you for your breakfast in the morning. I like how you make the bacon crunchy. Thank you for the pina coladas that you make with that slightly soft whipped cream and that red delicious cherry. Also thank you for the best shephards pie.
ReplyDeleteDear Quah'mar,
DeleteThis is Ms. Sims' homeroom class from New Orleans, Louisiana. Your momma's food sounds so good that we can almost smell it from down here. Destiny says, "Your mom's bacon sounds so good that I wish I could get take out from Massachusatts."
Write back soon!
I love fish very much and I love the ones from brothers
DeleteReading your writing makes me like your mom's cooking.
DeleteThank you Nana for cooking your delicious food. The kinds of food I like are your gooey bars, latkas, matza balls, and your salad and more. Well as in more I mean ALL your food. It is so good it will vanish. Why I called you last night was I wanted to try your vegetarian burrito. I heard my sister talking about it. I love your food so much it makes me want to be your son. Now I know how my dad feels. Your food dazzles me. Don't forget I love your pineapple upside down cake and when I eat your food it tastes like heaven on a stick. Even if I don't live with you, I am still happy I can eat your food when I can. When you are gone I will cry in pain but I won't forget about your delicious food. Warning/repeat. I will cry in pain, and when you are gone I will also give you some pineapple upside down cake. I would put it right next to your grave so you could eat it. I would also read your amazing cookbooks because they will dazzle me. I love you so much. I will be so cool. Let god be with you and amen. Thank you for being with me.
ReplyDeleteHi its diamon I loved how you put our vocabulary words.
DeleteHello to Ms. Radding's class! It is your new friends from Springfield, Massachusetts. We had a great time writing to the same prompt you did. We enjoyed reading your entertaining posts and we hope you enjoyed some of ours. Have a fabulous weekend. We can't wait to check out more of your writing!
ReplyDeleteI'm really hungry right now from all those posts.
ReplyDeleteHi Ms.Railly's room. My mawmaw is my grandma.I like to call my grandma mawmaw.I'm baking suger cookies now. Later I will get on the blog and give you the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI am thanked for my mom everytime she cooks. When I wake up on the morning I needed to take a shower so I would eat breakfast early. When I finish eating my mom makes my lunch. She cooks food before she put it in my lunch bag.
ReplyDeleteDear Ms. Radding I think your grandmas meatballs or good to because I like meatballs as my favorite food and I wish you could get some just for me i think I would have a better time eating it then playing on the yard.I would sit on the bench just because and not look back once until im done then I would ask you for more and you would say yes but after ive eaten fifteen meals.
ReplyDeleteI invented a new food called fritodog.It will look tan and red.It will look a frito and a hotdog.It will tastes salty.It will tastes chewy.
