Who's your Mama Cookbook, Book two,
By Frank the Tech Head "Frank" (North Georgia Mountains) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Who s Your Mama, Are You Catholic & Can You Make A Roux? (Book 2): A Cajun / Creole Family Album Cookbook (Louisiana Classic) (Hardcover)
What can I say, except if you enjoy cooking and enjoy a good story at the same time, this is the cookbook for you. Her first book was great and this second book just continues on from where the first book left off. Marcelle is a master story teller as well as a master cook. I have had the pleasure of tasting some of her food and interacting with her and her husband Rock. She prepares great food, combines it with a great personality and then has the ability to write about it in an entertaining and fun to read book. "Try it, you'll like it."

Unusual Cookbook,

This review is from: Who s Your Mama, Are You Catholic & Can You Make A Roux? (Book 2): A Cajun / Creole Family Album Cookbook (Louisiana Classic) (Hardcover)
Now this is not your usual cookbook. This is filled with anecdotes and old photos of the author's family. What a blast from the past! Being a New Englander, I had never even heard of some of the recipes, but they are yummy!
