On Saturday, the day of the celebration, my grandmother planned a lovely brunch. The recipes she picked out are family favorites and my grandmother knowingly plans to prepare these yummy recipes when family is around. I ventured in the kitchen with her and made the Sour Cream Coffee Cake while she prepared the casserole. These recipes might sound old fashioned buy they are GREAT tasting! We also had a Ham and Cheese Casserole but I do not have that recipe.
