Recipes & Wooden Spoons (Tales from Chapel Inn, Book 2

I have just recently discovered the Chapel Inn Series of books. After reading the first two books in the series I am thoroughly enjoying these stories. I would highly recommend this series.

"the Lord does work in mysterious ways."

Loved this book...and it was entertaining, and a quick fast read. I love the recipes, and have tryed several. The faith these women have grown up with(there father was the minister of Grace Chapel.) The work that the lord does, never stops me from being amazed. I do love all the books from Grace Chapel Inn. I would love to go there some day. I am there already in my thoughts. I wonder how the different people are doing today. Almost like a soap. I don't want it to end. I will get through all the books someday, but not today. Have a wonderful read. And never be surprized at the mysterious ways our Lord works.

Touching Tale

In this second installment of the "Grace Chapel Series" we find, Jane, youngest sister at 50, battling with old demons while plotting her future. She and two older sisters own a lovely little Bed and Breakfast and Jane is the artistic one in charge of the kitchen. While cleaning one day she finds her deceased mother's cookbook stashed away. Having never known her mother(she died having Jane) the cookbook aids her in finding the matriarch she desperately needed. A connection; a commonality. She finds comfort from the recipes and words of wisdom pressed between the pages of her mother's legacy. This novel touched me deeply and had me in tears often. However, in the end, I was enfused with hope and joy as Jane was. Lovely writing, lovely story and lovely message.

better than Back Home Again

The recipes are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. This is much better than the Melody Carlson book. Love Jane best of the three sisters, maybe 'cause I just turned 50 myself. note: get a box of tissues ready

Delightful book/Delicious recipes

Judy Baer tells a wonderful story. She addresses the strained relationships between three estranged sisters as well as the youngest sibling's struggle with her own inner demons and her dealings with others in this quaint little town. I would LOVE to visit this place! The recipes included are delicious and they are beautifully woven into the tale. I'm not sure if I want to keep this book in my fiction library or my kitchen.
