not another recipe post – deep roots in the family album
I was working on a seasonal recipe post for this week but decided there are enough recipes being published in the blogosphere and other media in advance of Thanksgiving.
Instead, I’m giving thanks for being part of a family with deep roots in small, local food businesses. While these businesses closed before I was born, I grew up with their stories, which surely helped germinate Local Orbit – three generations after my great grandmother ran her catering company.
Happy thanksgiving to all.
my grandfather Ben's chocolate business (1930's)
my grandfather Lou's gourmet deli - Perry's Delicatessen (1950's)
my great aunt & uncle's deli - Liberman's Quality Delicatessen (1940's)
