Give a year of stories: $69, one-time, never renewsAbout these questions
These are sample questions from different parts of life: childhood, food, love, work, holidays, and places. Your family can write their own. Family questions go first after the current question. The storyteller can skip any question.
Sample questions
- What's a dish you make, or remember, that never tastes quite the same when someone else makes it?
- What's the first thing you made that you were proud of?
- Describe a kitchen you knew well. Where did people sit?
- What's a recipe you could tell from memory? Say it the way you cook it.
- What did a regular dinner look like in a home you've lived in?
- What's a meal that went wrong and is funny now?
- What food takes you straight back to a particular place?
- What's a dish people ask you to bring, and how did you come to make it?
- What's a pan, knife, or bowl you still reach for, and what do you use it for?
- Is there a handwritten recipe you've kept? What does the note say? (Skip if you'd rather.)
- What did you like to eat when you were small, and where did you usually eat it?
- If you were feeding people you like having over, what would you put on the table?
