Reviews

"Farmhouse Weekends is a delightful cookbook full of beautiful photos, approachable recipes, and easy banter that will make you feel like you are relaxing at a country home for the weekend. It's really just a lovely book - I almost want to get another one to keep clean, because I am a messy cook (mainly because I get 'help' from my kids), and some of the pages in my copy are already well-loved. [The book] would make a fantastic gift for anyone looking to add a taste of down-home country cooking to their repertoire."--Julie Blum "Seattle Book Review" (8/26/2021 12:00:00 AM)
