Delightful to read through, wise and oh so funny
Good variety of recipes
Easy to make recipes with ingredients you usually always have
Pictures are a nice and quirky added touch
Great comfort food recipes - simple and filling
Tons of quick to make recipes - perfect for last minute dinners
Recipes don't use expensive hard to find ingredients
Good basic recipes for Sugar Cookies, Pie-crust and Icing - these are basics that everyone should know how to make (or have a husband who makes the pie-crust because stunning Librarian wife sucks at it)
The Not So Good Stuff
Recipes don't give enough directions and often have missing steps (Maybe a companion book on basic cooking techniques would be good)
Lot of recipes using lard which in my opinion does nothing for most recipes
Favorite Recipes
Prune Bread - Seriously it tastes good and simple to make (Trust me add a few choc chips & your kids will mow it down)
Chili Con Carne - Easy to make, healthy and hearty
Bread Pudding - my favorite Dessert
Great little tips and words of wisdom like the following throughout the book
“Always wear clean underwear in case you are in a car accident.” – Mary,housewife, 72
“ Smile pretty in case an available man is looking.” –Frieda,secretary,87
“There isn’t much a good cake won’t fix.” – Carmeline, librarian, 85
Who Should/Shouldn't Read
Fun for everyone except the most jaded chef
Perfect present for a first time homeowner
