Mouthwatering breakfasts

I’ve never seen a cookbook I didn’t NEED to own, and buying a bed and breakfast in Lancaster County opened up a whole new type of cooking… and therefore cookbooks… for me to try out.  One of my favorite new cookbooks has earned that designation as much for the wonderful stories and photography as for the recipes.  It’s “The Amish Cook’s Baking Book“, and this particular recipe can be found on page 69… should you decide that you too NEED this fantastic book!
