I miss my mom's chicken divan. It was so terrific and even though I use the same recipe, I can't seem to get it to taste the same. I have not been able to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I find that there are lots of recipes to be found that were forgotten, on www.allrecipes.com

good luck finding that special something from the past.

Remember Jell-O 1-2-3? Those parfait type things with the three distinct layers? Of course they never were quite as distinct as on the package.

Then jello cake which used to be popular and I miss. My Mom used to make a lot of the "floating island" deserts too. Marble cake was very popular also.

These were in another lifetime.

I miss banana cue with lots of melted brown sugar yummmm, my husband and I used to go to this market and buy banana cue every 3 pm. Sad he's not here now

You can still enjoy them at home!! Deep fry saba (similar) to plaintain after rolling in brown sugar and it's so good and gooey!!
