My grandmother sent me an article about a gravestone in Brooklyn that features the deceased’s cookie recipe. I love this, I love the idea that after her death she can still offer up just one more thing to make people smile, one last good deed

Spritz Cookie Gravestone

This recipe is set in stone.

But THEN I found saw at the bottom of the article that she’s not alone!

There’s a fudge recipe from Utah!

'Kay's Fudge' Gravestone

Kay Andrews's recipe was so good, her family immortalized it in stone.

And a nut roll from Israel!

Ida's Nut Roll Gravestone

A family recipe is just one of several touches that make this Hebrew headstone special.

I love this. I love this gesture from beyond the grave, a covenant between the past and the future. They say “I’ve left you something to bring you joy”, and we say “I will remember you and your love”

I want to make these so bad now. I’m so full of love for these ladies

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
