Pretty darn fabulous - C. Wilkinson - Northern AZ
I'm a 5th generation native of Arizona, but I LOVE these recipes from so far away in Maine. The Greenlaws remind me of my own family (except instead of lobster fishermen, we have cowboys!), full of great cooks with a no nonsense approach to most things. Linda's writing is very engaging and often hilarious, and her Mom...well, she's so like my own Mom, I had such nostalgia and tears...(hot dog sandwiches!)
I am an award winning cook and recipe developer, so I pretty much know what works in the kitchen and every recipe in this book is a success.
Well done, ladies!
