Reviews
"One recent Sunday morning I woke up early to prepare a dish for our church pitch-in. I consulted my Gooseberry Patch library and made the Wild Blueberry Cake in Patchwork Potlucks for the first time. It got rave reviews! I always know that I can count on my Gooseberry Patch cookbooks to provide crowd-pleasing recipes with ingredients I have on hand. Thanks Gooseberry Patch!" -Lindsay
"Don't even bother putting this cookbook away on your cookbook shelf! No sooner than I would put this one up, I end up thinking of another delicious recipe that I want to make, so now I just keep it handy in my kitchen! Our families top favorites are Oriental Slaw Salad and Peach-Jalapeno Jam!" -Cathy
