    			  Cooking like your grandmother's is impossible to find. In order to rectify that matter, I put together recipes from my own family's favorite dishes into this heartfelt cookbook. While the recipes may not always be exactly what you expect, trust me when I say they're delicious and I completely stand behind each of them.

    			  This is the book that jump started my career as a publisher. I used to own an employment agency in Arizona and realized that not everyone could afford my services so, to help out, I wrote and published this guide. Everything you need to know about finding help for your home is right here. I offer you my knowledge and authority on the subject within the slim binding of this nifty little book.

    			  If you’re looking for an objective viewpoint, my review might not be the one you want to read. As the founder and president of Five Star Publications, I make it my duty to personally look over every project to ensure that it represents Five Star and it’s mission to the fullest. Believe me when I say, Snowbird is one of those books. Len Schritter, the author, is an extraordinary man who doesn’t believe that retirement means your life is over.  Follow him on his annual migrations from snowy Idaho to sunny Arizona and immerse yourself in the good-natured humor that is middle-America
