My mom had this book, and was was the only cookbook I ever read like a novel, because Peg was so funny and practical. Her recipes use every-day ingredients.

I am really loving this cookbook. In passing when I told my mother about it, she asked if it was the old Peg Bracken I Hate to Cook Book or if it was a new, but similar idea. I was delighted to discover that some of her favorite staple recipes actually originated from this book. I do not really hate cooking per say, but it has been a troublesome thing up until lately. This book has given me some great inspiration and guidance in getting back in the kitchen and not just giving up (again). The personality on the page is so true and real I just love it!
I've made a couple of the recipes so far and I can already tell you that my Enginerd husband is a fan of this book too. ;) Oh, and check out some of the pictures of my mom's copy. Her's doesn't even have a cover anymore, so we're not quite sure of her copyright date.
