Product Description

Anna Del Maso had known that she wanted to be a chef since she was in the seventh grade. "Somehow everything in my life ends up being about food," she realizes, as she begins the latest of her food-themed quilts. Her twin passions have converged in a brand-new position as head chef for Elm Creek Quilts, Waterford, Pennsylvania's popular quilting retreat.

As she joins the circle of quilters at historic Elm Creek Manor, Anna is eager to preserve the manor's culinary heritage, dating to 1858, while also celebrating the new favorites of their many guests. Yet as Master Quilter Sylvia Bergstrom Compson well knows, the manor's kitchen, last updated in the 1940s, can't create food that compares to the state-of-the-art quilting instruction for which Elm Creek Quilts is renowned.

A full renovation of the kitchen must be completed by the start of the new camp season. Though the task is daunting, Anna is assured in her belief that "A kitchen is the heart of a home." As she and Sylvia begin to dismantle the old to make way for the new, Sylvia's reminiscences remind them both of just how many of the manor's traditions have involved food and celebrations. Whether the feast is one of the holiday menus prepared and enjoyed by generations of Bergstroms, or one of the Welcome Banquets and Farewell Breakfasts that have become hallmarks of Elm Creek Quilt Camp, there is a story for every recipe, and a recipe for every story.

The Quilter's Kitchen follows Anna's flavorful explorations of the kitchens of Elm Creek Manor, past and present. As she records beloved recipes and creates original dishes seasoned with love, she discovers anew how the gifts of the table gather friends and family ever closer.

1.0 out of 5 stars A HUGE disappointment, Nov 12 2008

By	J. Johnson (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

After looking forward to the release of this book, I was extremely disappointed. The story is very minimal and uninspired. Most of the book is recipes, with just a little plot thrown in. The entire book takes place cleaning out the kitchen at Elm Creek Manor. It only took a couple of hours to read this entire lack luster story. I sure hope the next offering from Jennifer Chiaverini is better. I don't usually write negative reviews, but I just had to give readers a heads up on this one. If you skip it, you won't miss any of the ongoing story.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, Feb 23 2009

By	Copperhead (Ottawa, Ontario) - See all my reviews

Was surprised when I received the book and realized that it was more of a cookbook. May try some of the recipes. You won't miss any of the story if you don't buy this book.
