In my recipe “Chocolate Chip Cookies that Will Melt your Heart,” I share how much my grandmother, Margaret, meant to me. She had 5 grandchildren in total and we adored her beyond words.
Our Gram was very proud of her Irish heritage and she did her best to pass along that appreciation to each of us. St. Patrick’s Day was her day to shine.
