This cookbook was a wedding gift in 1985. It contains a large number of reasonably tasty recipes which take very little skill or time to prepare. It was great help for two people who were fairly inexperienced cooks. While Libby moved on to other coo...more

If my family wants to cook a special meal, this is the first cookbook that gets pulled off the shelf. At least one dish, often the whole meal comes from the recipes in this book. We have been using it since 1986, and over the years have tried the maj...more

The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller
My rating:
