I remember watching Jeff Smith with my Grandmother on PBS as a child. This jolly man would whip up some delectable dishes that my Grandmother and I would drool over. Well, my Grandmother drooled all the time so maybe that doesn’t count, but it is still one of my fondest memories. Grandma used to tell me The Frugal Gourmet was my Grandfather. I believed her because I was 6 and she was my Grandmother. That was until years later I realized Grandma was just going crazy, or looking at it now maybe she was just messing with me. Either way, I love Grandmother. And while Mr Jeff Smith wasn’t my last TV Grandfather, he was the first. So I now leave you with the only video I could find on the internet of him. His cooking show was much better than this Letterman clip, but it works. Oh how I miss Grandpa. I wonder where he is today?
Sometimes it’s better not to conduct an internet search of your favorite TV Grandpa.
