Joyce gave my mother a copy of this amazing book in 1963 when my parents were married. The recipes are wonderful and easy. I remember using the book with my mom as a child and now use it with my daughter. This is a must have for any cook who wants a taste of what we grew up on in Cambridge in the 60's and 70's- all of these recipes are still relevant today.
People-pleasing recipes, also very helpful for beginners

This cook book has been a family favorite since I was a small child. Even my asian friends prefer the egg rolls I make from this book to their time honored family recipes. Well worth the back order wait.
