Gather around the table!  It’s that time of year that is simply wonderful -- getting together with your friends and family for fun, togetherness and of course, food.  Before you know it, someone is asking for the recipe for them to try it at home. Do you feel like you always have the same thing at all your get-togethers? There is good reason for that, the familiar recipes are family favorites.

Darcie Anzalone has compiled many of her family favorites into a little recipe book which will give you more ideas for tasty beverages, breads, candies, cookies, main dishes, soups, salads and snacks plus much more. Many of these recipes are very easy to make and provide delicious results. My own favorites are Pumpkin Cake and Baked French Toast.

With the help of “Just Family Favorites,” I can't wait to have guests over the holidays. Even if some of the recipes are found in a Christmas recipe book, there should be no reason why some of them can't be family favorites throughout the year. With Darcie's help, I'm sure my guests will be asking me for recipes. Should I give out my secrets or make them think I've suddenly become a kitchen magician?
