Yellow Bowl Love 💛
Cooking together across the miles, our family, like most, enjoys the love of the humble Sloppy Joe. I did a deep dive into the birth of this sandwich and there are 2 distinct origin stories (I’m leaning towards the Iowa loose-meat beginnings although the Sloppy Joe’s Havana/Key West story rings true as well.) Regardless, I love everything about Grandma’s recipe- especially the memories it evokes. I smell sloppy joes cooking and I get lost in the past. I’m little, in our back yard, with laughter and chatter and music and splashing pool fun- the red enamel soup tureen is filled with potato chips… I smile. I’m listening to my own 3 kiddos laugh and play with their cousins in the Park Way- maybe they’re making a movie, playing action man, burying a time capsule… I smile.
Many memories and much Yellow Bowl Love 💛 Thanks for cooking with me fam!
