She lives in England, so the book has a definite British slant, and all of the recipes use European measurements. I don't know if it will be published in the U.S. (looks like the British version is available through Amazon), but it may be one to track down just for fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-31461916694733819882008-09-30T19:50:00.000-04:002008-09-30T19:50:00.000-04:00don't forget lenora mattingly weber's beany malone...don't forget lenora mattingly weber's <I>beany malone cookbook</I>.sdnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06298423833124213171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-87325278981558730672008-09-30T19:04:00.000-04:002008-09-30T19:04:00.000-04:00Barbara Walker has also penned a Secret Garden Coo...Barbara Walker has also penned a Secret Garden Cookbook, which contains equally well-researched information about Edwardian cooking. And unlike that Mother Goose cookbook, it actually contains a recipe for pease porridge. <BR/><BR/>I second the motion on MUD PIES, as well.

One of my favorite books at age five was a Cambell's Soup book for kids. I vaguely remember one recipe that had something to do with tomato soup and grilled cheese cut into faces or something. Bet I could find the book online, don't ya think?Monica Edingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924540264341924291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-86754023267792752872008-09-30T13:52:00.000-04:002008-09-30T13:52:00.000-04:00Are you familiar with MUD PIES AND OTHER RECIPES? ...Are you familiar with MUD PIES AND OTHER RECIPES?

Very entertaining to see it again.<BR/><BR/>And I still have my own copy of Ginny and the Cooking Contest. : )Bibliopinionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16234891361306376636noreply@blogger.com
