Book Review: The Taste of Home Cookbook

Youngest daughter moved out of the house in June, but she still comes home for most of her meals. She’s never shown much interest in cooking and I was surprised when her Christmas list included a request for a good cookbook. Youngest son decided that he’d get this for her, so I showed him my Betty Crocker Cookbook and my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, suggested he buy either one of those, and sent him down to the local bookstore.

 

He came home with The Taste of Home Cookbook instead. What can I say? The boy’s a genius. (You should see the coffee grinder he got me!)

 

If you’ve paid any attention to the recipes I’ve posted here, you know I’m partial to recipes from Taste of Home magazine. They come from the kind of down-home style cooking I grew up with, and the ingredients tend to be common, everyday things you probably already have in your fridge, freezer, or cupboard. But best of all, everything is yummy.

Not Exactly the Sunday Hymn

I didn’t get around to posting a hymn today, but never fear, all is not lost! I have a couple of songs sung by my church* choir last Sunday. I’d be one of the sopranos, by the way.

• Advent Hymn with flute by Emily Aasman.
• African Advent Carol. This one includes the Junior Choir, too. The percussive sound toward the end is clapping by the junior choir.
• And as a bonus: Me reading Genesis 22:15-18. Feel free to say I sound about thirteen. I’ve heard it before.
