Grandma's Wartime Kitchen: World War II and the Way We Cooked 7 reviews
Joanne Lamb Hayes
St. Martin's Press, 2000
The Greatest Generation of Cooks
Those of us living in this age of plenty have no idea what it was like to cook during World War II when sugar, butter, meat and oh, so many canned foods were rationed. I was a very little girl then and didn't understand so many of the hardships my mother endured. This book answers so many of the questions left unanswered and for me it is a joy to read. I do remember many of the recipes ...

Dinners in a Dish or a Dash: 275 Easy One-Dish Meals plus Tons of Time-Saving Tips 15 reviews
Jean Anderson
William Morrow Cookbooks, 2000
TIME IS MONEY
Being super busy, I'm delighted to learn how to put dinner on the table fast. Frankly, I've usually ignored a lot of the ready-to-use salad, slaw mixes and other foods at my supermarket because I thought,I know how to grate cabbage and tear greens. But what I didn't know was how to use these prepped foods in new and unusual ways and that is exactly what this book teaches. And I would never ...

Stretching in the Office2 reviews
Bob Anderson
Shelter Publications, 2002
stretching
This is a great addition to the Stretching book I already own by these same people. As a massage therapist I like giving stretches to clients that they will actually do! In having this book specifically for people who work in an office environment, I can now give them stretches they can do while at work.

The New German Cookbook: More Than 230 Contemporary and Traditional Recipes7 reviews
Jean Anderson
William Morrow Cookbooks, 1993
Different from most German Cookbooks
Light, contemporary revisions of many (almost 230 recipes included) German traditional recipes are here. My favorites include an unbelievably great "BlackForest Trout Soup"; "Rhineland-Style Sauerbraten with Raisin Gravy" "Schnitzel Pot" and the humorous "Rat Tails" or "Green Beans, Pears and Bacon." For dessert, try the german "quark" which is like ricotta cheese, and can be substituted for ...

A Love Affair with Southern Cooking: Recipes and Recollections16 reviews

The One Cookbook Treasure that You Will Talk About
I saw this cookbook being advertised on GMA during the "shopping holidays". I thought this would be an ideal gift for myself and my mother since she too is a gifted cook. I have not been able to put this book down! The historical content dating back to 1513 thru the present alone is a diamond alone.
My dad who is "not in the kitchen" he does the outdoor grilling, has taken this book and won't ...

The Singe Best All-Purpose Cookbook in Print
I bought my first copy of THE DOUBLEDAY COOKBOOK when it was first published in the mid-70s. It's been the kitchen resource I turn to most for answering questions and for ideas about a recipe. I own many all-purpose cookbooks, including JOY OF COOKING, which I've always found difficult because of the way the recipes are layed out on the page. THE NEW DOUBLEDAY COOKBOOK is more sophisticated, ...

THE DOUBLEDAY COOKBOOK COMPLETE CONTEMPORARY COOKING Volume 1 & 21 review
Jean Anderson, Elaine Hanna
Doubleday, 1975
My Favorite Cook Books
I purchased my first set of these books when they were newly published. After 30 years of constant use, my copies had fallen apart. I used rubber bands to keep the parts together. I kept a special file for the stained pages that had fallen out. Was I happy to see these books available? You bet. I plan to be using them for the next 30 years. I even found copies for my 2 adult daughters. ...

The American Century Cookbook
Jean Anderson
Clarkson Potter, 1997
Thank goodness Jean Anderson's The American Century Cookbook is as much a culinary page-turner as a call to the kitchen, because most of the 20th century's favorites are killers according to modern nutritional standards. Try to be satisfied learning that chocolate brownies and meatloaf, as we know it, were born back when most cooks relied on a wood-burning stove, and resist the urge to whip up a Grasshopper Pie or batch of Cherry Winks. Be ...

Shelter Pubns, 1988
Good for body and mind.
All I wanted was to learn how to properly stretch to increase my flexibility and to prevent injuries. This book not only did that, but it hammered home the message that you shouldn't compare your flexibility to that of others, and that stretching has a multitude of practical benefits, besides flexibility. This is not a book for extremists trying to do the splits on two folding chairs with a child ...

The American Century Cookbook: The Most Popular Recipes of the 20th Century1 review
Jean Anderson
Gramercy, 2005
wonderful cookbook
I was very surprised to see no reviews for this marvelous cookbook. I have the older, 1997, edition and it is full of reliable good recipes, including the _best_ zucchini bread recipe I have ever tried. I make it every summer. In addition to good reliable recipes -- something I do not find in too many cookbooks -- she has an easy friendly chatting style that I personally enjoy reading. Try this ...
