    Same!

    Turns out they use to send an “envelope” of yeast.

    Ours would deliberately omit things. Family had to watch her and then take independent notes/ write in the margins what she was really doing

    RIP you bitter but loving gal

      I’m assuming an envelope of yeast is in no way close to a packet of yeast? lol because that would be too easy.

      Ours would deliberately omit things.

      The old secret ingredient. I don’t think we had to contend with that, thankfully.

        Grandma was a constant ball buster and, as my aunts and uncles weighed her prep carefully, said “why? You’re still gonna mess up the cooking. Stick to baking.”
