Mildred loved to cook, if you were at her house, you did not go hungry.  She was well known for her cinnamon rolls, cheese rolls kolaches and egg noodles.  The eggs she used in her noodles came from her chickens.  Her eggs tasted so good, because she fed them spaghetti that she cooked, bread, greens from the garden and of course chicken food.  She also loved DQ Tacos.
