Dedication

This book is dedicated to Annie, Minnie, Edna, and Gladys,
the first Nelson cooks of my memory. Thinking of the
difficulties they endured every day to put three big
meals on the table (not to mention afternoon lunch)
without electricity, refrigeration, and modern
plumbing gives me a great appreciation for them all
and for the conveniences we take for granted.

We also want to thank everyone for sending so many
great recipes. Time didn't allow us to test all the
recipes, but the ones we did try were delicious! We
have no explanation for the fact that Olive's "Four
Fruit Compote" has 5 fruits or that DoLores's "Three
Bean Casserole" has 4 beans. We are also uncertain as
to whether lutefisk or bullhead are suitable
substitutions in Gary's "Cioppino." Please refer any
questions to the contributors.

A special thank you to Stacy for all the hours spent
at the computer typing and editing.

Please check recipes you contributed to
this project for major errors that could
be problematic and alert the family.
