Favorite food dishes from childhood

[willow]

I did not inherit my mothers cooking abilities and that is a good thing because she was a dreadful cook! My mother liked eggs so we ate a lot of eggs, eggs and bread. The 4 staples that were always available to my sister and I were bread, eggs, cheese and ketchup. You would be amazed what we could come up with using these 4 ingredients. We must have eaten our body weight in egg mayo every month while growing up. To this day I can not face egg mayo sandwiches.

Every other weekend we visited our bio father. He made kraft macaroni cheese and served it with pilchards in tomato sauce. My sis and I both still talk about kraft macaroni cheese with pilchards in tomato sauce. We loved it! It is very hard to come by these days though. In fact, now I think about it, I can't remember the last time I bought it. I still look for it from time to time.
