Judy Howard’s new cookbook for cooks, foodies and historians is based on recipes from pioneer days in central Oklahoma. 1905 Cookbook will inspire today's cooks regardless of age or sophistication. Recipes like Molasses Drop Cake and Oklahoma’s Delight or Delicious Chicken Pie and Roast Beef with Oyster Dressing entice the taste buds and make you want to keep this book within easy reach to satisfy your body and soul. In addition to this amazing and often amusing collection of 300 epicurean delights, Howard's book is flavored with 200 turn-of-the-century photographs, 1905 merchant ads and stories of our 89er/pioneers who compiled the original cookbook found at a flea market. This cookbook will complement any cook's recipe collection and is the perfect gift for a $15 donation to the Regional Food Bank.

Bring your family and friends for Bethany’s fun Rt. 66 Festival May 25th and help needy children.
