Helpful Score: 3

Great story about a goofy mom who would just serve, and eat about anything that didn't have maggots. She loved to give parties and Ruth and her brother appointed themselves 'GREETERS" in front of the buffet to warn people what not to eat. This is a funny book and lots of reference to food and recipes. Ruth can cook and relates food to many special times in her life. This family had a cook who taught her more than cooking, but how to take care of herself as her mom wasn't quite with it when it came to rearing children or cooking or keeping house for that matter. This book is really a keeper if you like to collect beautiful stories. But even if you don't collect-- don't miss this story. It is awsome.
