About Noni's Recipes
In a time before email and online recipes lived a fairytale grandmother named "Noni." Visits to Noni's house started with a trip to the infamous "toy drawer" where there was always a new toy car or gadget to play with. This was followed closely by a trip to the kitchen to pull a fresh loaf of bread out of the oven. Highly competitive games of SORRY or Monopoly took place on the kitchen table while the bread cooled and dinner was prepared. With full stomachs from dinner, games of Monopoly continued on into the evening as more food was prepared. Finally, no trip to Noni's was complete without a gallon-size ziplock full of cookies for the long trip home.
This site is dedicated to the recipes that Noni shared with her family and to the recipes that are captured in each family's heart as they are passed down and turned into a tradition.
