### 🥄 How I Carry It On
Every time I make this dish, I:
* Use the same worn mixing bowl she passed down to me
* Play the old music she used to listen to in the kitchen
* Make a little extra, because sharing was always her way
* Let it sit a few minutes before serving — because she said food settles just like people do

### Final Thoughts
In a world that changes fast, **some recipes don’t need to**. This one has lasted through generations not just because it’s delicious, but because it brings people together — just like my grandma did.
So when I make this dish, I don’t just follow a recipe. I honor her memory, her warmth, and the way she made a house feel like a home.
**And even after 40 years, that feeling hasn’t changed.**

Would you like help turning this into a full recipe card with a dedication or including a photo section to preserve the memory? I’d love to help make it even more special.
