-----------hardcover, about 9 x 10.75 inches, a Near Fine copy in a Near Fine dustjacket, looks new, 254 pages, colour photos, ---"For many of us, our mother’s kitchen is a place where memories and meals are shared. Trish Magwood is no exception.Her mother fed four hungry kids delicious, simple food every day; they always sat at the table, and they always had dessert. It’s also where they carved pumpkins, pulled out first teeth, learned to tie shoes, and stuck together as a large and boisterous family over yummy food. In Trish’s grandmother’s kitchen, it was the same story, as it is in her own. Trish loves feeding her three children and husband new recipes, and tried and true favourites from her mother and grandmother. It’s all about preserving the family table, no matter how busy our lives have become. Collected here are early century recipes for tomato butter and crab apple jelly, sixties and seventies classics like cheese soufflé and Cottage Barbecue Pineapple Chicken, and new favourites such as Miami-Style Beef Short Ribs and Mock Butter Chicken. Interspersed are loads of gorgeous photos of food, memorabilia and the family’s kitchen garden. --Inspired by a sisterhood of good family cooks, In My Mother’s Kitchen is a collection of great home cooking remembered,preserved and renewed, but from a contemporary, busy working-mom’s perspective. Our moms may have had a bit more time to spend in the kitchen, but Trish knows how to give us that same great food faster, without compromising flavour."---, any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo.
