Contained herein are 152 recipes from Grandma's collection that have stood the test of time. These recipes were compiled by her Granddaughter, Lori Ridgley.

Cooking has always fascinated me. It was always amazing how one person could do so many different things with one food. Some you liked and some could be revolting to your digestive tract. I started cooking for my family when I was about twelve years old. These were the lean years of the great depression and there was a scarcity of money to buy food, so you had to be sure everything you made could be eaten or your siblings were not very forgiving!

My mother was ill a lot so I was on my own to search magazines, newspapers, and cookbooks for new ways to use the same old staples. No one starved and as I grew older and had more practice, I had my favorite foods and ways of fixing them. This cookbook contains some of the favorite dishes of family, friends, and church dinners. Every recipe has been tried, tested, and approved, if copied right. I'm not a creative cook, although through the years I have improved on many recipes. I hope you enjoy cooking half as much as I did. I always felt it was as important to be a good cook as it was to be an actress, artist, or sportsman. Anyone can be a good cook if he or she is willing to take the time to follow directions and ask questions. No finished product will be better than the ingredients you start with.
