Acknowledgments

T o the love of my life, my amazing husband, who rescued the kitchen from piles of dishes multiple times late at night, who tasted more food than he ever wanted to, who played Mr. Mom so that I could think while working on this project, and who originally birthed this idea of a cookbook in my heart.

To Blyss and her sweet family, who faithfully let me drop my little munchkins off at their home once a week to be entertained. This allowed me to sit in my house in complete silence and with peace of mind to work on this project. My boys have fallen in love with you!

To Sierra, who was my substitute child care provider and always loved my boys so well. I knew they were in good hands when they were with you.

To all my friends who tasted lots of food and gave me honest opinions about whether or not the recipes were keepers.

To Bridgette, who, second to my mom, has shared more kitchen time with me than any other person I know. You did it again as I raced to the finish line with ninety recipes to tweak and pregnant as the day is long. Your mad skills came through again. Thanks, BB!

I am surrounded by amazing cooks in my life, women who love to cook and create beauty all around them. So to all of my foodie friends whom I have shared kitchen time with, made great memories with, and ended up washing far too many dishes with: Cheryl, Jenelle, Rita, Emily, Sandy, Jess, Anita, and Sheree, you have all spurred me on this journey. I am very grateful to you for teaching me and inspiring me!

To Andrea, who waltzed into my life by accident, per say. Ten years ago I would never have dreamed I would have an editor someday, but here you are, and you have become my friend in this process. You have helped me become excited for this project, with your phone calls just to say thank you, your emails telling of recipes tried long before the manuscript had even been edited, and your admission that the Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls you made for your church bake sale never made it there. You have done more to my soul than I think you will ever knowthank you for believing in me!

Introduction

I grew up in a real farmhouse kitchen in Ohio, where I began creating recipes for our family of six at the age of sixteen. My father was a bi-vocational Mennonite pastor and farmer, so we had a busy life that included ministry and a demanding farm. We raised our own beef, had fresh milk, and for a season had a brood of chickens my mother named and gathered eggs from.

As a young woman away from the farm, I missed all those fresh ingredients and home cooked mealsand I figured I wasnt alone. I opened a store in a western suburb of Washington, DC, called The Farmers Wife, named in honor of my mother. The Farmers Wife specialized in things you would find in a farm kitchen: real butter, farm-fresh milk in glass bottles, and all kinds of baked goodness. Running it for more than four years taught me so much about people, how important food is to our families and relationships, and what recipes make people smile. Though I sold the store in order to raise our young family, Ive remembered and incorporated those lessons into my life, and into this collection of recipes.

My life is rich, but not because my parents had lots of money when we were growing up. It is rich because of the relationships that have been forged through good and hard times. As I reflect about what draws people together, I am struck by how a plate of food, whether it is a simple pasta dish or a delicious steak, plain green beans or green beans almondine, a slice of plain white bread or a piece of crusty artisan sourdough, a plain chocolate chip cookie or peanut butter whoopie pie, has a way of bringing people together. Relationships are formed over food, and sharing meals with the ones you love has a way of opening our lives up to each other.

We use food to live. We use it to celebrate. When you are in a home where you feel welcomed, the food seems to offer confirmation of how you feel. Your senses come alive and your soul is at rest. We gather around food to process life, and throw a party just because there is good food. Rarely do we get together with a group of people without food. We gather around it as a family during happy and sad times. Recently, as our family grieved over the passing of several members, we shared meals together and something good happened. We talked, we reminisced, we laughed, and we criedand we healed in ways we could not have expected, all over food prepared by people who cared for us.

This cookbook is designed to offer simple but wholesome food along with classic recipes that are great to serve your family or to entertain guests. It offers practical tips for entertaining guests with ease and personal stories from my familyand will hopefully spark ideas about creating your own family legacy with recipes. Whether you like to cookor you just like to eat wellI hope you will find simple recipes here that will wow your family.

Appetizers, Dips, and Beverages

M y mother has a wonderful array of appetizers she prepares for all of us who can make it home on Christmas Eve. Over the years she has developed the recipes to our familys liking. My mother faithfully creates a wonderful presentation with her amazing kitchen skills. My siblings and I all have our own favorite things we like to see on her buffet table. I know my brother Mikes favorite is the pink jello fluff. My only sister Jenelle and I adore the layered Mexican dip, and my younger brother Garys favorite is all things shrimp. This is such a fun gathering of our hearts as we gather around in the little kitchen, wait for Dad to bless the food, and then dig in and introduce our spouses and children to the things we love on that table. We experience our mothers love as she so graciously prepares things just for us.
