Overview
When I was a little girl I always loved to bake and cook with my Mother in the kitchen and of course sing and entertain until my Mother laughed so hard she cried! If you love to Cook Beautiful Food and are a Lover of Music, you will want to have my Recipe Book on your kitchen counter. With my new book, which includes my Music CD, you are not only getting almost 100 Recipes in Chapter 1; I may say there is a little storytelling, the growing years and family memoir in Chapter 2; the Lyrics to my original Compositions to sing along with in Chapter 3; the story behind the Lyrics in Chapter 4; and last of all, Lucille’s life with Joe, a memoir in Chapter 5. There are 244 pages of pure enjoyment, delicious recipes in photographic colorful array and beautiful music sets the scene. I’ve combined my talents and passions for cooking and music and it’s never too late to discover a new talent.
