Summary: "Harley and Davidson Family Recipes" Hit the Spot!
Review: As a native Milwaukeean I am always keen for hometown news, and got a real kick out of all the national coverage awarded the Harley-Davidson 100th Anniversary festivities; some kind soul even sent me a copy of "Harley and Davidson Family Recipes." Sadly, I let this palatable little gem of a book sit on the shelf far too long before I gave it a serious look.

Inside "Harley and Davidson Family Recipes" I found -- well, just what the cover promises -- a trove of personal family photos and memories, plus dozens and dozens of genuine family recipes -- some twists on familiar dishes and some a bit more on the exotic side (like the watermelon salad with feta cheese -- sounds funny but tastes great!). My favorite, so far, is the roasted red bell pepper soup.

I would highly recommend this book for anyone with an interest in real family cooking, and for any Harley-Davidson devotee or motorcycle enthusiast, for its personal glimpse into the day-to-day life of its founding families. Like some of the recipies inside, food and motorcycles may sound like an unusual combination -- but trust me, it works!

Review: Excellent book. A little non-fiction, a little photo album, and lots of great recipes. What a nice tribute to their grandfathers and family!
