ARC Book Review

A road trip that will work while at home or in preparation of the family vacation. This cookbook has little one liners the kids can learn and say along the way. A wonderful dedication to her husband as well as her children, this recipe book will also provide a little history for things many take for granted. For example, the first recipe for ketchup where and when. Nicely broken down by region and simple recipes that families can make together.
