I totally sympathize. Nobody that I know of ever got sick from eating Grandma's pies, cakes, cookies, or any other of her cooking. Families have been raised on home cooking. Unfortunately, there are abuses.....and since somebody got the willies about how some food was handled, we go to the other extreme to prevent that. Food safety education, licensing, permits, certifications, and the like. BUT.....the red taps is only as good as the workers handle sanitation issues..... I was at a fair with my girlfriend. We went to a stand that she goes to every year for what was supposed to be a great sausage sandwich. The kid waiting on the counter was wearing gloves, as "required", wrapping the sandwiches, and wiping the sweat off his head - WITH THE GLOVES!!!!!!!!! Hmmmmmmm....where did safe food handling practices go? I complained to the manager (for all the good it did), and refused the sandwich. Another time, I was at a flea market. There was a food stand. Some dirty looking man wearing a cook's hat and apron came out from behind the grill. Still wearing gloves, he picked up a napkin and loudly blew his nose on it - STILL WEARING GLOVES. Went back to the grill and continued cooking - NOT MY BREAKFAST, THANK YOU!. Need I say that I do NOT eat out any more than is absolutely necessary??? The moral of the story is that no matter how good of a show they put on, we still are getting food contaminated with sweat, saliva, and BOOGERS!!! YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll take Grandma/mom's cooking ANY DAY before I trust some grunt in a fast food joint to handle my food.

It wasn't the preservation of old iron since at that time, I was unaware that people even did this. It wasn't to show off my restoration skills (though I had tried my hand at a couple of old motorcycles in my teens and if I recall correctly, those old motorcycles were sold in boxes about one quarter finished). It wasn't to relive memories of Grampa, Dad or myself out on the back 40 nursing the Farmall pulling too many b
