Mom and the girls cooking

These recipes, staples of the Glancy household (late of Johnstown, PA, then New Jersey, and Northern Virginia), were first collected into a cookbook to celebrate a family wedding. That first cookbook contained many older recipes, some of which remain classics, and others... well, they're interesting time capsules. (It's easy to forget how much margarine we all used to eat. And how many things people made with Jell-O.)

A second cookbook was collected in more recent years, which begins to show more interesting culinary adventures as the family spread out, married other delightfully odd folks, and broadened their collective palette.

This online repository will provide a venue for new dishes, and will try to keep pace with the discoveries, experiments, and reinventions of older traditions that are happening in Glancy kitchens around the world. So long as there are beach weeks, Oscar parties, and holiday get-togethers, there will be opportunities to gather, cook like mad, and exchange the delighted noises of happy eaters. "This is amazing! Where did you get the recipe?" Well, if it's good, we'll try to collect it here.
