Let’s Talk Cutting Boards

So what’s the big deal with cutting boards? I have been collecting them inadvertently  for about 10 years. My collection really started with one I found at my husband’s childhood home in Maywood, NJ. His mother was cleaning out the house in order to list it on the market. We decided to look in the basement to see of he could find anything from his childhood he wanted to keep. While looking around, I noticed a large, round, circular bread board. It looked very old and found out it was made by his great, possibly great-great grandfather. They were immigrants from Germany and owned a bakery in Manhattan in the early 1900’s. I thought it was amazing. It is now a mainstay in my kitchen. Ever since, I have been keeping an eye out for old and sometimes new cutting boards!
