    My husband and I were in Ohio's Amish Country recently and I purchased two of your new little Tiny Tips books. They are so darling! I purchased Tiny Tips for the Kitchen for my next-door neighbor as a gift...she is a real "homebody" who loves to bake and cook, as do I. I bought Tiny Tips for a Cozy Home for my aunt...she is in her late 70's and already has a very cozy home, but she will also love the book! Thanks so much for such cute little books...they make wonderful gifts.

     I just wanted to tell you that I made the Carrot Cake Jam from your Christmas Book 12 and won a blue first-place ribbon at our county fair! I added some raisins as my own touch...it was the best homemade jam I have ever eaten. I will use this jam for filling in my three-layer spice cake to take to my daughter's for Thanksgiving. Thank you again, Gooseberry Patch!

     I love cookbooks and have bought tons of them. But often you really cannot afford to make most of the recipes in them. Until yours...I absolutely love it! I bought your Big Book of Home Cooking, was reading some of the recipes to my mom, and had to say, Wow! I went back and bought five more copies for my best friends for Christmas, plus one more for a bride-to-be! I am just amazed...it is like having my grandma, my aunt and my mom all in one cookbook. Thank you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another awesome cookbook from Gooseberry Patch June 5, 2012

By C. Phillips

Format:Plastic Comb

THE HARVEST TABLE....is jam packed with a bountiful collection of recipes, tips, wonderful ideas and stories! There are recipes for tailgating, football watching, snacks, and all the way to the Thanksgiving spread....and don't forget desserts! I went through the book scouring the pages and marking them with sticky tabs. I found a Pineapple Cheese Ball recipe that I WILL be making for my daughter's baby shower, a Pizza dip, a Touchdown Pickle dip (how fun is that?), Halloween Popcorn balls that have candy corn in them, a cornbread dressing recipe and many many more! I have tiny green tabs sticking out all over the edges!! Read the reviews of the recipes I actually tried out at [...]
