Grandmas Arms Just Stretched A Little Further
Tap into your inner grandmother or perhaps her cookbooks and spread the foodie love at a Beyond Bubbie event or by contributing a recipe to the Beyond Bubbie online interactive community cookbook. Bubbie is the Yiddish word for grandmother. For may people the word grandmother evokes an image that takes us back to a warm cozy place filled with good food. The Beyond Bubbie Project was born out of a collaboration with Reboot a Jewish cultural identity initiative. Based on dialogue about the undeniable link between memories, food and Jewish grandmothers, they recognized that this is a phenomenon that exists in all cultures. In an effort to promote this commonality they set up a platform where people from all walks of life can share their identity and memories through their grandmother's (real or imagined) recipes. They have truly embraced the concept that, "you are what you eat"...I couldn't resist.
