I am still using my grandmother’s grandmother’s rolling pin which she brought from Kremenchug, then czarist Russia, now Ukraine. I always helped my grandmother cook. I loved her borscht. I feel so connected when I make her recipes. She died at 92. I am now 84. The rolling pin is the only thing my children and grandchildren are arguing about. Who will get it when I go? Thank you for sharing your story.
