A Gift from the Author! January 1, 2009
Sherri (SHENANDOAH VALLEY, VA)
Have you ever loved a book series so much that you hated finishing the last book? Did you feel like you were leaving folks you'd sort of grown attached to? I finished reading The Mitford Years series by Jan Karon and felt just this way! Then I stumbled upon the Mitford Cookbook at our public library. Unfortunately, they would not let me renew it a fourth time because someone came along and put a Hold on it! Since then, however, I have receive it as a gift - and have thoroughly enjoyed revisiting "old friends" through the book excerpts intertwined with all those recipes for the down-home dishes mentioned in the novels! Also, in the cookbook, the author has shared her own preferences, family memories & recipes. Jan Karon gave us a very sweet gift in putting this cookbook together!
Read At the Table December 30, 2008

I thoroughly enjoy reading the excerpts from the Mitford books which reference the dish and precede the recipes. I read a few pages at a time while sitting at the breakfast or lunch table; moreover my husband lets me read to him, allowing me to share something of interest to me (the excerpts) and of interest to him (a new recipe). So far I have tried only Andrew's real hot cocoa recipe -- very sweet but delicious. Tonight we will try Velma's chili. This book will make a nice gift for a friend/Mitford reader, but I will have to purchase another since I will not be able to give mine away.
beautiful book, delicious recipes December 30, 2008

This is a really attractive and beautifully written book, much more than a "regular" cookbook. I've tried several of the recipes and they were all perfect. Jan's "Pot of Beans" is a new staple in our house and Puny's Cheesecake was so easy and delicious at our family Christmas party. I highly recommend this book, and get an extra one because you will definitely want to share it as a gift to someone special.

If you've read the Mitford Series, you will want this book. Even if you don't try any of the recipes, it's a fun book to read.
