I came across your books while on vacation, antiquing and country shopping and immediately bought For Bees & Me for a friend's birthday. She absolutely loved it! So I went and bought myself my own copy, plus Old-Fashioned Country Cookies too. Thank you for creating such wonderful books.

I picked up a copy of Welcome Home For The Holidays, and have never seen such a wonderful cookbook. I had seen your books before and now I wonder why I waited so long!

This book is just typical of the Gooseberry Patch recipe books. There are great recipes sent in by customers and friends of the two women who started this catalog. The recipes are always good. I have not tried one that has been hard, used wierd ingredients, or didn't turn out excellently. There are nice comments at the start of each recipe suggesting pairings (applesauce is great with these pork chops, for example). And the end of each recipe is usually a little quote, a nice drawing, or some other little bonus. Although there are no pictures of the meals prepared, this series of Celebrate... are great cookbooks. Celebrate Winter is one of my favorites. I have made some great soups that I have not been ashamed to take to potlucks out of this recipe book. Great cookie recipes as well.

This is a cookbook well worth the money.

Enjoy.

This review is from: Celebrate Winter (Plastic Comb)

I own all four books in the series and this one while my least favorite is also helpfull for x-mas preporations. Mostly dealing with christmas it does have a chapter on new year's(american) and valentines day. I thought the X-mas section had more cookie recipes than any thing else, but hey, one can never have too many cookies.
