"This book helps me so much. My mom had this cookbook in the 80's and now she bought me one. Now all my cooking taste just like mama's. Good cookbook. Has everything you need as a beginner cook."
"This is the one everyone should have on their shelf. I turn to it again and again for basic information and favorite recipes, and have given it as shower and house-warming gifts. I learned to cook using my mother's and was thrilled to get my own copy when I left home. A classic!"
It was my starter cookbook, first introducing me to the ease and rewards of cooking. Yet over the years I have learned there are some things that just can't be improved. For instance, the pecan pie, lemon tart, and pie crust recipes are perfect and simple. Also, when I need a taste of home (the Midwest) I can find a navy bean soup recipe, or such, close by."
"I'm kind of picky when it comes to cook books, mostly because I hate eating what I cook so it has to be exceptional. I bought this book because I happened on a cookbook back in 1974 when I was engaged to be married to my first husband. It was a Better Homes and Gareden one so I got the real McCoy. I found this one to not be up to par with the little spin off one that I got. So I was disappointed and I still had to eat the food I cooked from this one."
