The only recipe book you'll ever need! Even includes home made beer, wine and amaretto. features plenty of Italian, American, and European favorites... for every taste! Many of these recipes were hand-me-downs from my mother and both grandmothers, but because we did not have exact measurements I had to make everything, writing down the recipe and measuring as I went. Many times I'll give you a recipe and also give you alternatives that you can put in, depending on your likes and dislikes, therefore making the dish to your liking. And then we also have what to do with leftovers. For instance, if you're making a pot of gravy with meatballs and sausage, what do you do with the leftovers during the week?
