Praise for Recipes of a Dumb Housewife

 

How do I let you know how I liked the salads or am I able to just say all of them were fantastic?

Margaret Trainor Howie

Caterer

 

(The Beef Stroganoff is) very yum! All gone, though there’s some leftover noodles … it was very well received. Exquisitely dark and rich-seeming. I’m sorry I was so parsimonious in my serving myself. Dang!

And bonus – (my husband), unsolicited, commented that he didn’t know what it (Eggs Lorina) was, but he liked it. And wanted seconds!

Brenda and I have both read your Recipe Book. We both like the nutritional information. Also it seems you are talking directly to us and helping us through each recipe.

Larry Lozon & Brenda Warner

Open that fridge and start cooking! So many of us have opened our refrigerators and stared blankly into that void declaring "There's nothing to eat." Well it's time to throw down the shackles of that kind of thinking. Along has come Lorina Stephens with "Recipes of a Dumb Housewife". This quirky cookbook will revolutionize your approach to cooking. Not only will you find yourself chuckling at her palpable wit, your mouth will water with the myriad culinary options for all palates. Recipes include "Beef Stroganoff", "Melon Soup", "Touch of Aztec BBQ Sauce", and the delightfully fun "Chicken Pie Adventure" - all printed with easy to follow instructions and complete nutritional facts! From recipes and nutrition to food preparation tips and advice, let the "Housewife" show you how!

Matthew Wiles, author of Red Phoenix

Don't let the name fool you. There's nothing dumb about this housewife. Or the cookbook.... Peppered between some tried and true recipes are anecdotes about life and family and stories about the recipes.
