Got it for $1 at my local library’s re-sale.
Can’t say I love this book or have any high hopes for the recipes.
The only writing in the book from previous readers marks multiple recipes as “NO GOOD” and “BAD” lolol
Aside from that, the first half of the book is repeated in most of the author’s cook books as a “guide to healthy eating” where she mentions you should pray to god for his help in losing weight.
She uses a lot of evaporated milk in her recipes. I may try a few recipes but it’s definitely a book I’ll be donating again.

I bought this cookbook at the latest library book sale. I think someone was getting rid of their collection. Even though it's older there are still a few recipes in here that I'll try out.
