Full of heart-warming, delicious recipes!

We have tried many of the recipes in this simple-to-follow cookbook. No fancy ingredients, utensils or gadgets needed- just the good old basics used to produce favorite meals for the whole family. Delicious- from Apple-and-Onion-Stuffed Pork Chops, to Grandma's Potato Soup, Buttermilk Bread, and on through such desserts as Caramel Apple Pie, and Old-fashioned Chocolate Jumbles, the recipes are a success each time. A great gift for yourself or someone else (newlyweds, or a housewarming etc.)- it will actually be used and enjoyed!!!

Every recipe is a winner!

Every recipe that I have tried to date is a winner. The pearls of wisdom contained between recipes are entertaining and enlightening. Makes a great gift for yourself and for all your friends who enjoy being in the kitchen.

Food for the heart, soul, and family.

A delightful and easy to use cookbook that captures the history of country cooking and family farm life. Simple recipes from years back have been updated for a slightly more sophisticated palate, but the charm and pleasure remain. Contains some very enjoyable anecdotes from farm and country history. A very pleasant and readable cookbook. What a terrific heirloom gift!
