FAIRBURY, Ill — Many people talk about gathering favorite family recipes today to share for the next generations. But not many put as much effort into it as Sheryle Atkins and her family have.
Family recipes tell rich story of farm family life
The 200-page hardcover “Around the Lee Family Tables: Treasured Memories of Farm Life and Food” grew from Sheryle Atkins’ idea to gather family recipes together. It grew to also tell the stories of her parents who moved from Kentucky to Illinois, where they raised their six children. Creamed Corn is still a family favorite with the Lee family children who remember what a big production it was to make big batches back in the day.
