Rating:  Summary: A must-have addition to every kitchen! Review: A cookbook that actually reads like a story. Readers are taken back in time with the author and her mother as they share stories from the Nebraska prairie days. Packed full of recipes you'll have to try! This book paints vivid pictures of what life was once like...cooking on large, corncob stoves, stoking the fire to keep just the right consistency for making a cake. We have it easy with today's kitchen technology! This book would make a great bridal shower gift or just one to add to your kitchen shelf...
Rating:  Summary: I love this book! Review: One of my favorite "reading" cookbooks which also contains tasty recipes. Some of the recipes remind me of the ones my grandma used to make, and were lost after her death, so finding this cookbook has brought back happy memories. One of my favorite recipes in the books is for dumplings. The best I've ever made and eaten.Reading the book also gives me a deeper understanding of farm life and how people survived in the midwest. My husband grew up on a family ranch so this is a plus.

Rating:  Summary: Wonderful stories and great recipes Review: This is an enchanting cookbook, full of stories from the author's mother about cooking in the 20, 30's and 40's. The recipes are easy to follow. Every one that I have tried has been delicious, family-pleasing, "real" food not gourmet stuff. This would be a great bridal gift. My girls will get their own copy when they leave home. A must for the collector!
