The View From My Kitchen Window: A Memoir with Recipes - Paperback

by Julie Kalt Gale (Author), Tobias Samuel Gale (Illustrator)

This book is a chronological journey of the kitchens in Julie Kalt Gale's life. The book is a memoir of her life through the stories and recipes of the family and friends who raised her. The stories center on the delicious food prepared and the characters who cooked them. The original drawings have been designed specifically for this book by the author and her son, Tobias. There are 110 recipes that represent foods of the times, from the 1950s to the present day. The recipes include many family heirlooms that were preserved on little scraps of paper that would have disintegrated if they had not been preserved in this book. The recipes run through the alphabet-from Apple Dumplings to Zucchini Tempura.
