As your godmother, I decided to compile this book of some of your family and friends' favorite recipes. All of the recipes have been labelled with the person who donated them and many have a story to go with them. These recipes have been shared with our families and friends - at birthday parties and family get togethers and all types of celebrations. They have been the centerpiece for many of our fond memories. We hope that by sharing them with you, they will add a little spice to your life and find a regular place at your table. Remember, the way to a man's heart IS through his stomach. Bon appetit!
