Publisher Description
The kitchen is the heart of the home.
So much of life is lived around the family table: we tell stories, review the day, pass on traditions, grieve our losses, resolve differences, introduce new loves and celebrate holidays. In the preparing and sharing of meals we create deep memories that we carry with us forever.
In the flavor of Chicken Soup for the Soul, here is a joyful collection of heartwarming stories accompanied by mouthwatering recipes. Seasoned with heartfelt blessings, this marvelous book will help you revisit time-honored values and foster the sharing of meaningful conversation—and new recipes—at mealtime.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The authors of the bestselling Chicken Soup for the Soul team up with cookbook author Diana von Welanetz Wentworth to nourish the body. Recipes for real chicken soup accompany others for pot roast and chocolate cinnamon rolls, barbecued beans and a myriad other comforting dishes. The recipes follow brief inspirational and/or sentimental sketches gathered in chapters with names like ``Mom's Kitchen,'' ``Love, Romance and Marriage'' and ``Men in the Kitchen.'' Drawing on contributions from cookbook authors and celebrities within the human potential movement--e.g., Jeanne Jones, Art Linkletter and Sam Keen--each feel-good recollection serves as a parable of a venerable quality, e.g., patience (Debbie's Creamed Corn) and appreciation for what one has (No-Depression Cake). The authors note that recipes have not been adjusted to make them ``nutritionally correct'' in the belief that ``their love content outweighs their fat content.'' 50,000 first printing in cloth; 500,000 in paper.
