Many Gravestones Have Epitaphs On Them,

perhaps one of the most famous, 

is Spike Milligan's, 'Duirt me leat go raibh me breoite' Gaelic (Irish), translated "I told you I was ill", a typical Spike joke as most people cannot read Gaelic, which brings me onto other messages on gravestones, recipes,

In a Utah cemetery, Rosie discovered the final resting place of Kay Andrews, which has her fudge recipe engraved on the gravestone, this time with some simple but clear instructions. The fudge turned out great, but the real treat was learning Kay’s story, hearing her family talk about what made her special, and learning that the woman had always liked to share things with people, other recipes include the nut rolls etched into the gravestone of one Ida Kleinman, in Israel, or another American woman who has the recipe to a savoury cheese dip etched into her gravestone. So far she has cooked 12 or 13 such gravestone recipes and she is already looking for more to share with her TikTok followers, 

 “When we’re in mourning, food is very comforting to us,” Rosie told TODAY, “These recipes feel like a more tactile, all-senses-included way to remember someone rather than only using your memory. But when you’re eating grandma’s special cake or cookie or whatever it is, you feel a little bit more connected to her.” Rosie Grant told The Washington Post that she would love to visit all the gravestones whose etched recipes she has used so far, as a form of respect to the people buried there. “My goal is to go to all of them,” she said. “I would love to cook the recipe and taste it at their graveside as a cheers to this person who gave this gift to me and to everybody else.” I wonder if this is an American thing, or are there any UK gravestone recipes out there?
