My Chris grew up the baby of 6 children. His oldest sister is 19 years older (though you wouldn’t know it looking at her, unless you think Chris is twelve!) and was married when Chris was about a year old. She and her husband could not have children for several years, so they often took Chris along to fairs and had him over for the night to get their “kid fix.”
One of their traditions together was this one for Thanksgiving. She’d pull out her grinder and let Chris turn the handle. Together they made this marvelous dish. It is served at every Thanksgiving in the Smith home.
