Paperback. Quick & Easy Recipes. Entertaining Tips. Meals You Can Make In Less Time Than It Takes To Do Your Hair.and More!When this was first written, Pre-Fab wasn't a thing. They had salad bars in grocery stores, with a few store made dishes, but nothing like they have now. Now, it's wonderful! So many choices. People used to buy every ingredient, chop and mix into their delicious dishes that took hours to make. Cutting corners was taboo! So, it gave me so much pleasure when ladies across the country faxed (yes, fax - ask your grandma what that is. It's like the times of rotary phones and Pong. And televisions were so big you could serve a buffet on them.) Anyway, I swear I could hear ladies giggling as they faxed their orders in. When they called, they whispered the title. As if it was naughty chef porn. Love it! Re-releasing this book now gives us the opportunity to add some fun bits, juicy recipes and more stories as we go. Disclaimer: If you don't like some of the writings in this book, blame me. I wrote the stories and ad-libs. My sister, Cori, contributed many of the delicious recipes you can thank her for. "Our family loves to entertain," Cori adds, "we learned early on how to whip up tasty party food, stretch dinner for surprise but welcome guests, and decorate for a bash everyone will have fun at!" "We've also thrown in some recipes that are so easy, even our Dad can make them!" laughs one of the girls, they won't say who. In re-releasing this cherished cookbook, the authors enthusiastically embrace the evolution of home cooking and entertaining. Gone are the days when preparing an elaborate meal was a day-long endeavor, and the mere thought of taking shortcuts was considered culinary blasphemy. Today's kitchen landscape is rich with pre-fabricated options, allowing for creativity and variety without the time-consuming preparation once required. This book, enriched with both new and timeless recipes alongside heartfelt stories and practical tips, celebrates this modern approach. It joyfully mixes the nostalgia of past cooking rituals with the convenience of today's methods, aiming to inspire gatherings filled with laughter, delicious food, and lasting memories. Whether it's a family dinner that needs to come together quickly or an impromptu party that calls for clever and speedy solutions, this collection proves that making delightful meals and entertaining guests can be both simple and enjoyable. The authors' personal anecdotes and the inclusion of easy-to-follow recipes - tested and approved by their own family members - add a warm, inviting touch to the culinary journey they share with their readers. We hope you enjoy our little book and make fun-filled, savory and delicious memories you cherish! This item is printed on demand.
