Memoirs Made Easy
Life Story/Biography books - A brief accounting of significant periods and events of your life…share the stories of your ‘growing up’ years, your important moments as
an adult, and what you've learned & valued over the years. Another
important aspect covered in this genre is your recollection of your own parents
and grandparents. If you’ve ever been curious about your grandparents, what
they were like and how they lived, think of how important this information
would be to pass down to your family---as they will one day share the same
curiosity about you.
Memoirs – A more detailed and lengthy retelling of a significant period of your
life. Many memoirs focus on one time period or occurrence but covering your
whole life is also an option.
Kitchen Memoir ---A delicious alternative to the regular Biography...Think of this genre as “Foods as a Family History”… Remember the foods you grew up cooking (or just eating!)---the ones that your family adores?
The Kitchen Memoir is the perfect way to gather a collection of beloved family
meal stories and the recipes that accompany them! Envision telling the story of
typical Sunday dinners or special holiday meals & the foods and recipes
that were part of it all! Details can also include what foods were the
favorites of various family members! Now is the time to document and pass along
those recipes (and favorite family food stories) before they are forgotten! The
Kitchen Memoir is not just a fun trip down memory lane for you, but also makes
a very special (and unique) gift to family members…
