Officer of the Mess

"Food is Meant to be Shared". The more time family and friends spend together cooking and eating, the stronger those family ties and friendships will become. Sitting down to a meal that the whole gang has cooked together is even more gratifying. Many of the recipes in this book came from family and friends who wanted to share some good old fashion food recipes with us. The idea of this cook book was to put together special recipes that you here about but don't normally cook. Special recipes that are handed down in the family, recipes you grew-up on, and recipes you never tried because you thought they where to hard to tackle. This collection came from famous chiefs, not so famous chiefs, fire house cooks, TV personalities, other cook books, but most from family and friends. It has taken over 10 years to finally quit adding to the collection and share them with you.
