Just Like Mama Used To Make

A wonderful classic cookbook!

What family hasn’t got one of these stashed somewhere in the house? I remember my mother frequently referring to our copy of the book fairly often, mostly for the pikelet recipe on page 177. This page in our copy is lovingly stained with years old splatters of pikelet batter.

Containing traditional and classic recipes that we all would have grown up with- everything from Shepherd’s Pie to Banana Bread to Jam Drop Cookies- this makes a lovely wedding, engagement or house warming gift.

With a copy of the Commonsense Cookery Book, we too, can make a meal ‘…just like mama used to make…’
