My Two Seconds Of Fame


Yeah, that's me there in the shades, because, you know, I'm, like, FAMOUS!  Patricia Biesen, who writes Chicago Eats Allergy Free for Chicago Now, mentioned FabGrandma in a blog post on November 27, called "Play with Food: One Fab Grandma, FAAN's New Look and more"

Then, on December 12, she was a guest on a Bill Leff's radio talk show on WGN in Chicago, and mentioned my blog by name on the air!!!  Yes, my hat still fits. Barely.

The "Original" FabGrandma

My mom will be 80 years old in November. In October of 2005, she almost died when she had a ruptured diverticuli. Her doctor took her in for surgery at 5:30 on a Friday afternoon and saved her life. In March of this year, she had surgery again, this time to reverse the colostomy she received in 2005.

She called me a couple of months ago to tell me that her recipe for stuffed cabbage was selected as recipe of the month for the Greystone Power monthly newsletter. Two ladies from the electric company came out to her house and took a picture of her holding a head of cabbage. Yesterday I received a copy of the newsletter in the mail from my sister. So, for your viewing enjoyment, here is my Mom and her stuffed cabbage recipe. It is gluten free, so enjoy if you can eat beef and tomatoes: (click on the picture for a larger version)
