Liver, rice & onions… and good mac n cheese. I used to hover around the kitchen when my grandmother was making the mac. She never scolded me for talking a small block of the cheese she was using.

At least I don’t remember her doing that.

Liver & onions was like a treat when she made it. Eating both, when done correctly… pulls me back to a good solid 25 years ago.

I wasn’t as stressed, though I thought I was at the time. I had most of my family still alive.

A friend of mine makes very good chicken livers. One of these days, I’ll see if I can talk her into making it again for us to share.
