One moment…

Dear Children, Grandchildren, and Grandchildren Yet to Come,

With a feeling of love and joy for you, we embarked on this year-long endeavor of gathering recipes from relatives throughout the United States and compiling them in this Family Tree Cookbook. We did this so you may have a record of the rich heritage you own and what better way than through the home and kitchen.

And so, dear children and children of our children, we dedicate this book to you. Accept this our venture and enjoy a legacy of delightful recipes, a gift of love spanning generations.

With great affection,
