Your Mom had a very teeny kitchen indeed! It's a wonder that she tested her C&T recipes from it. And especially delightful that she hung aprons as valances! I had tea with her several times, fond memories!

What came out of that little room was miraculous and magnificent for sure. It’s heartwarming to know you experienced some of it, too! I still feel the magic when I bake there.
