Happy Birthday to those that have gone

Today is not only my grandmother Icie Fern's birthday and Dave's dad Harold. She passed in 1963 and was 52 years old he passed in 1983 and was 71 years old.
I am now older then my grandmother, weird thought. 

I wanted to post Dave's mom's recipe for Ginger bread for Christmas.

Drift around our old grill, we are still trying to figure out what parts of this can be used for.
