Jo Ann & Vickie Our Story Publisher: Oxmoor House, Incorporated ISBN-13: 9781936283699 ISBN: 1936283697 Back in 1984, we were next-door neighbors raising our families in the little town of Delaware, Ohio. We were two moms with small children looking for a way to do what we loved and stay home with the kids too. We shared a love of home cooking and making memories with family & friends.

After many a conversation over the backyard fence, Gooseberry Patch was born. We put together the first catalog & cookbooks at our kitchen tables and packed boxes from the basement, enlisting the help of our loved ones wherever we could. From that little family, weve grown to include an amazing group of creative folks who love cooking, decorating and creating as much as we do. Hard to believe its been over 25 years since those kitchen-table days. Today were best known for our homestyle, family-friendly cookbooks, now recognized as national bestsellers! We love hand-picking the recipes and are tickled to share our inspiration, ideas and more with you. One things for sure, we couldnt have done it without our friends all across the country.

Whether youve been along for the ride from the beginning or are just discovering us, welcome to our family! Table of Contents Copyright Gooseberry Patch

Clean-up will be a snap! For best results, fill the slow cooker about 1/2 to 3/4 full of ingredients. Little or no added liquid is needed...just add what the recipe calls for. Theres no evaporation, so all of the tasty juices stay right in the crock. Dont peek! Cooking time can increase by 15 to 20 minutes every time the lid is lifted. Toward the end of cooking time, taste and adjust seasonings. At high altitude, slow cooking will take a little longer. At high altitude, slow cooking will take a little longer.

Add an extra 30 minutes of cooking time to each hour in a recipe. Food with Friends
