Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Memory from Kris: Every afternoon, Grandma Olson would tune in to WCCO to hear Joyce Lamont share a recipe or helpful household tip with her listening audience. Grandma would have me sit at her kitchen table, pen and paper in hand, ready to copy down the recipe as Joyce read it aloud. If we weren't ready, or missed an ingredient, Grandma would have to wait until the WCCO monthly newsletter arrived in the mail with all of the recipes. Grandma didn't like to wait! There were also times that part way through, she would have me stop writing because, "Iskitabita! That won't taste good at all!"
