"This book is dedicated to all cooks. In our homes, life is centered around the kitchen. We have compiled this book to preserve and share many recipes which have been handed down from family and friends. Some of the recipes are treasured family keepsakes; some were adapted from others, and some are new; however, they all reflect the love of good cooking. Please forgive the inaccuracies since many recipes were gathered from faded scraps of paper, backs of envelopes, etc. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do."
