Grandma's Home Kitchen: Where Lessons and Life Were Mixed with Love: Family Recipes and Traditions of Grandma's Swedish Bakery, Door County
Author: Wanda Peterson Mango
Wanda was born April 2, 1943 to Leonard and Alice Peterson at Door County Memorial Hospital where she is now a Registered Nurse in Obstetrics. She is the second of 12 children -- 6 boys and 6 girls. Despite the loss of two children, the Peterson family was (and still is) a close family -- learning to help each other and learning about unconditional love. Taught with guidance, the children learned that God and family work together to mold our lives.
In 1970, the family bought the Rowleys Bay Resort, known today as Wagon Trail Resort. It is famous not only as a family resort and conference center, but especially as the home of Grandma's Swedish Bakery (now in 2 locations -- Ellison Bay and Sturgeon Bay) and Grandma's Swedish Restaurant. In this book, Wanda shares some of the recipes and memories of the family "before Wagon Trail." Without the foundation and determination of Alice Peterson ("Mom" and "Grandma"), this abundance of bakery goods and home-cooked food would not be available today. Hospitality was a key ingredient in the recipe of life taught to the Peterson children and continues today at the Wagon Trail. Alice Peterson passed away suddenly January 10, 1988, but the lessons she taught continue to influence people today.
