[quote=Anonymous]My mom cooked cabbage with milk. Also macaroni was also served with milk and butter, never had mac and cheese until I had a kid. Rice was served with butter and sugar and cinnamon (guess where I grew up!).

Homemade pizzas from a box (dough mix, a little can of tomato stuff, a packet of dried parmesan) were really good, she made them with either sliced hot dogs or browned hamburger. I didn't know about Italian sausage in spaghetti sauce until I was in college (which is where I learned most people don't put sugar and cinnamon on their rice).

Hm. . . she'd make this sandwich spread, usually when there was an event like a Moose Lodge supper. She used the old kind of grinder you clamp to a table edge. It know it had ham and I think also carrots and celery and mayo, it was pretty good. In my teen years she acquired a recipe for a salad that had macaroni, mayo, french dressing, cubed ham, onions, and frozen peas and carrots.

In one of Shirley Jackson's books (I'm addicted, this would be Life Among the Savages, about rearing kids with her theater critic husband in a house in Vermont) she describes a supper main dish involving tuna, whipped cream, and olives.
