incredible country store

a great litte book that you can't put down, brings back many memories of the past and shows how to recreat them. The author takes a lot of time explaining how things were made, I'm real happy with the book and have ordered one for my brother and one for my daughter. They both think it's a great book and have shared it with others. Thanks.

Incredible Country Store

This is a fun book to own.It is a blast from the past for so many of us.I checked this out from the library and knew I had to own it myself. This book is a great read and has lots of information .

Not just for Old Timers

This is a fun book with all kinds of trivia, stories about forgotten favorites (Erector Sets) and hard to find goodies (old fashioned candies). It has a huge variety of home recipes for lotions, soaps, balms, antacids and more and the recipes appear to be fairly simple. It's light, full of photos and easy to read. I picked it up for the recipes but have found it kind of hard to resist. I recently read it out loud to my husband on a trip to the ER -- trying to distract him and keep us both awake while we waited for him to be admitted (he's fine now). After we got home, he swiped it and is reading it himself. If you like places like Cracker Barrel's old country stores, you'll really get a kick out of this book!
