(More customer reviews)I have an entire shelf of cookbooks, but most rarely get used. Maggie's cookbook is totally different. The day I got my copy, I spent a couple of hours just reading. Maggie weaves personal stories, cooking tips, and interesting Kentucky information all together in a way that has gotten me excited about cooking again. The format allows me to move through an entire year month by month focusing on fresh produce. I really like the way recipes are divided up seasonally. Maggie makes it easy to put together a great meal. I have already fixed three recipes successfully. You don't have to be Julia Child to fix great meals! This is also a great book to get the whole family involved in the kitchen. The tradition of the family dinner needs to be rekindled and this cookbook is a good start!
