Recipe in Her Handwriting
“An old recipe card in a faded tin, with her curly handwriting. I tried to make the synth sound like flour in the air.”

Lyrics
Old card in a faded tin Flour stains and her curly hand Two cups sugar, one cup cream She wrote it down for me Sweet and warm, sweet and warm Her recipe lives on Sweet and warm, sweet and warm The kitchen sings her song Butter melting in the pan The oven glows like a small sun I read her words out loud And she is standing here Sweet and warm, sweet and warm Her recipe lives on Sweet and warm, sweet and warm The kitchen sings her song Pass it down, pass it down Hand to hand, pass it down Sweet and warm, sweet and warm Her recipe lives on Sweet and warm, sweet and warm The kitchen sings her song The kitchen sings her song
