The text and pictures offer a personal and illustrated view of this family's recent past. Although it is a regional memory trip, I feel it could serve as a reminder for our own life experiences in our early years -- of course, I am in my late sixties and this opinion applies to those of that generation. (smile) It was a heart-warming look into bygone times.
This precious book caught my eye mainly because of the "snow ice cream" in the title! How fondly I remember my mother scooping up great heaps of freshly fallen snow to make that wonderful treat! And in this book we have the RECIPE!I bought the book as a gift for a 10-year-old girl who lives on a farm, plus an extra copy for myself!There are many, many wonderful thoughts, facts, pictures, and memories to beguile almost anyone, any age. Don't miss it!
I found this book to be very delightful. It brought back memories of my own great grandmother and the stories she told. The recipes and the helpful tips sounded a lot like the things my great grandma used to share. I found it to be refreshing and nostalgic. I would recommend this to anyone who likes to hear from the past the wisdom and the winsome.
Not at all what I expected, very few recipes. Would not really recommend it to someone else. Disappointed with # of recipes. Information OK.
I work in long term care and we have all been enjoying it, as well as my husband, and Dad! Good reminiscing and a beautiful book to boot!
