highly recommended

I wish I knew Susan Branch . . .

Reading her book just makes you love her!

Everything I've made we at the very least liked, most of the time loved. My husband said that her cheesecake recipe makes the best plain cheesecake he has ever tasted.

Simply Wonderful!

This is my favorite Susan Branch cookbook. I have made many of the dishes, with some of my favorites being the stuffed artichokes, gazpacho ( both of which are perfect for a light summer dinner), banana cream pie (Dad loved it for father's day), blueberry pie, apple crisp (on a cool fall evening), the cucumber-dill dressing (refreshing and wonderful for summer), home-made mayonnaise, chocolate cream puffs(made for a tea...looked elegant and was so easy to make), and the stuffed french bread (easy and fun to take to a potluck). I lean toward the dessert sections and appetizers the most, but all of the recipes are delicious. I love her notes about the dishes and little quotes and drawings throughout the book. This one is definitely a keeper and would be a great gift also. I now own all of her books and this is by far the one that I use the most.
Treat yourself....or someone you know...you'll be glad you did.

Beautiful to look at, but not to use

I purchased this intending to give it as a gift as I love home style cookbooks with cute artwork. After purchasing it I decided not to give it as a gift as many of the recipes are rather exotic. If you are looking for an adorable cookbook with down to earth recipes, I'd recommend Gooseberry Patch instead.

I am just in love with this book

Everytime I open this cookbook I smile. It's a pleasure to cook using the recipes. The illustrations are country classic, beautiful and adorbale, and the text is like handwriting.
Oh, and the recipes.......

Choose from:
Pan Fried Chicken and Gravy, Banana Cream Pie, Gazpacho, Turkey stuffing, twice baked potatoes, and artichoke dip...this cook book has something for everyone. I like her notes on the recipes and feel like I know her. You feel instantly at home when you pull out this book, and make a delicous dish. I could enjoy a day just reading it though, and flipping through it.
You have to own this one.
