Lost recipes

I don't like to regret what I've done in my life because they've all been a learning experience one way or another but I do have one regret. I never wrote down my Mom's recipes although she's still with me physically her brain is robbing her of her memories including the delicious food she used to make us. I miss her Ecuadorian food and not being able to make it for my niece and nephew when they ask for certain foods makes me upset with myself. For us non-Mexicans I used to think her mexican chicken Pozole was the best and nobody's has ever come close it and that stems from not being made with my Mom's hands. So today I decided I was going to try, with a 911 text to Oti (Anna) I think I might have come close to it well at least Mom ate all of it which is a plus even made her backup burrito in case she didn't like it. So the moral to this long post is if you still have your parents or loved ones around whose brain hasn't been robbed by Alzheimer's take an hour or two or even spend a day with them writing down your favorite recipes and making new memories with them, they will appreciate it and you will hold on those moments and be able to pass it on to your future generations
