Synopsis

There's nothing like the breezy days of summer...the freshest produce, grilling outdoors, swaying on the porch swing and watching the kids chase fireflies. A trip to the farmers' market, or a short walk to your own backyard, give us reasons to share the most flavorful dishes with our family & friends. We're celebrating all these memories in the making with Summer in the Country.

Breakfast is a breeze when serving Aunt Emma-line's Strawberry Muffins, and packing a picnic or toting a dish to a reunion couldn't be easier...just pair up Confetti Coleslaw with Beverly's Fried Chicken. Firecracker Grilled Salmon and Sizzlin' Chicken are perfect for the grill, while Toasted Taffy is a fast-fix campfire dessert.

With a whole chapter of sweet treats, whipping one up is so easy...choosing between all the yummy choices is the hardest part! You'll find recipes for old-fashioned favorites like Lazy Daisy Cake, Flowerpot Cupcakes and Watermelon Slice Cookies inside. We've also included a chapter of food gifts to give...straight from your summer kitchen. Aunt Marj's Violet Jelly and Pioneer Day Blackberry Jam are two of our favorites.

The weather is perfect, so set a date and call your friends, family & neighbors. It's time to celebrate summer...in the country! Hardcover, 224 pages. (9-1/4" x 6-1/2")

Dear Friend,

There's nothing like the breezy days of summer...the freshest produce, grilling outdoors, swaying on the porch swing and watching the kids chase fireflies. A trip to the farmers' market, or a short walk to your own backyard, give us reasons to share the most flavorful dishes with our family & friends.

Breakfast is a breeze when serving Aunt Emma-line's Strawberry Muffins, and packing a picnic or toting a dish to a reunion couldn't be easier...just pair up Confetti Coleslaw with Beverly's Fried Chicken. Firecracker Grilled Salmon and Sizzlin' Chicken are perfect for the grill, while Toasted Taffy is a fast-fix campfire dessert.

With a whole chapter of sweet treats, whipping one up is so easy...choosing between all the yummy choices is the hardest part! You'll find recipes for old-fashioned favorites like Lazy Daisy Cake, Flowerpot Cupcakes and Watermelon Slice Cookies inside. We've also included a chapter of food gifts to give...straight from your summer kitchen. Aunt Marj's Violet Jelly and Pioneer Day Blackberry Jam are two of our favorites.

The weather is perfect, so set a date and call your friends, family & neighbors. It's time to celebrate summer...in the country!

Wishing you a sweet summer,
Jo Ann & Vickie

From the Inside Flap

I am 21 years old and any little reminder of home is fantastic...your cookbooks give me just that! I have a total of 14 cookbooks and I've made it my mission to collect all of them! All the tips and homestyle recipes remind me of an afternoon with my grandma... memories that I cherish deeply. Thank you for creating such wonderful products that I know give other people the same wonderful feelings that they give me.

I just love everything Gooseberry Patch! I have been collecting your cookbooks for years now (and several of my recipes have even been printed in them as well!) I never tire of them...each time I open a cookbook there's always something new and exciting that I never noticed before. Keep up the great work! Regardless if I am thumbing through the catalog or reading a cookbook, thank you Gooseberry Patch for making me feel at home.

I was introduced to Gooseberry Patch by my Aunt Jan. I began collecting your hardcover books several months ago and I now have 29! If anyone asks what I want for the holidays or my birthday, the answer is always the same...Gooseberry Patch cookbooks!
