Industry Reviews
Hutchens grew up on a large family farm in southern Indiana during the 1950s, but from her description, it could have been decades earlier no telephone or television, dresses made from colorful calico feed sacks, before-dawn awakenings to prepare the food for the hay hands. In fact, some of her stories are reminiscent of the work of Jane Watson Hopping, the "Pioneer Lady" (The Many Blessings Cookbook, LJ 9/15/93; The Lazy Days of Summer Cookbook, 4/15/92), or even of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Family was important, and Hutchens includes poems, diary entries, and nostalgic memories as well as recipes Mamaw's Raspberry Cobbler, Mother's Famous Apple Butter from grandparents, parents, brothers, and sister. A period piece, for larger collections.
