    My Mom didn't have any great dishes. She struggled to feed 7 at poverty level. Several times a week we ate Potato Soup. Once or twice a week it was canned Salmon. Her meatloaf, which was served often, contained more saltines and Catsup than actual ground beef.

    I have to say, though, that I have fond memories of dessert. Mom would spread margarine on a piece of white bread and then sprinkle sugar on it.

    It may sound like I am complaining. I am not. I remember dinner as a family fondly. My Mom did what she could with what she had and supplemented that with a lot of love.

    I wish I could sit down to dinner with her now.
