The butterscotch pie recipe Grandma carried with her through the war.
The copper mines in my hometown closed in 1986, when I was 12 years old.
The pages with the most splotches, brown like age spots, tell the best stories. My great-grandmother made a plain One-Two-Three-Four Cake as regularly as some people made cornbread. Her husband worked as a miner and farmer, and together they raised 10 kids on what he grew and supplemented by his meager salary. “He didn’t have teeth,” my mom said flatly. “Well, he had teeth, but wouldn’t wear them.” So the cake sometimes came with a scoop of homemade applesauce.
I wonder if she worried about having enough money to retire, like I do, and I wonder if the pie helped lessen fears as she remembered making it on rationed sugar during a World War.
