"With 5 kids in the family we had lots of leftover bread. I have sampled bread pudding in homes and 5 star restaurants from Chicago to Tampa to Hong Kong to New York and never found one with the same texture or flavor as Mom's!"

This is a picture of me from about the time I started experimenting with cooking. Once I put peanut butter in Dream Whip (a Cool Whip type product you make from a powder with milk that was very popular in the Midwest when I was growing up) and invented peanut butter Dream Whip and tried to hide it in the back of the refrigerator. My mom found it and announced at dinner that I had made the most wonderful dessert topping! I think she put it on chocolate cake that night. It was very fun.
