I just got an older book out of the library. I love getting Christmas ideas from these books. Anyone else love them?

Yes, I have a few. Some I ordered, others I got at St. Vincent DePaul for $2.50. Lots of great ideas and recipes.

My sister in law has several GooseBerry Patch cookbooks and I have had the pleasure of looking through them. I love all the little ideas that they throw in there along with the recipes. I also bought thier Halloween book through ABC Distributing a few months ago and I love it! Great ideas for any sort of Halloween or Fall celebration!

I have quite a few of these books and love them all. I think my favorite is the Church Suppers one - comfort food - yum!

I love Gooseberry Patch books, too. Did you know you can submit recipes and if they use your recipe in one of their cookbooks you get a free copy of the book. I just received notice that they are publishing one of my recipes in their upcoming book - The Harvest Table. That is the 3rd recipe of mine they have included in their cookbooks.

Love their books! I had no idea you would get a copy of one if they used your recipe. I'll have to get busy...congrats Sharon and Kim!

I have a couple of them, but my all-time favorite is a big "binder" type that is called Christmas All Through the House. It has recipes and crafts, and is just a great book. Even better, it had a $20 price tag, was brand-new when I got it, but I found it for $2 at a flea market! I look through it all year, not just Christmas. Great recipes and ideas.

I always look forward to the new edition when it comes out-I usually wait til they are at the library though. I get so many great ideas and recipes and their presentation is always so incredible!

I have all of their books. They are the best and I love reading them. They use to have a catalog that they would mail to you and a sale in Delaware Ohio that was great but, I think they just do the cookbooks now. I recommend them to everyone.
