This is the red velvet cake that started it all — soft, tender, and beautifully rich, just like my Grandma used to make. Made completely from scratch and topped with silky, old-fashioned Ermine frosting (also known as heritage or boiled milk frosting), this cake is pure vintage magic. No cream cheese here — just a light, fluffy, and not-too-sweet frosting that lets the cocoa-kissed red velvet shine. This recipe has been passed down with love, and every bite tastes like tradition. Whether it’s for holidays, birthdays, or just because, Vintage Red Velvet Cake is a timeless treat that never goes out of style.  

In the realm of comforting and crowd-pleasing side dishes, few can rival the timeless appeal of a well made potato salad. This is my Moms potato salad recipe. It brings back such fond memories and I love it. Is it the only potato salad I make? No. Is it easy, and requires no planning? Yes. I almost always have the ingredients on hand to make this and it comes together quickly. This recipe has stood the teset of time and it is full of vintage nostalgia. Give it try this summer!
