Meet My Mom: Rose

My mom, Rose Wride, is one of the most talented cooks and bakers I know. Whatever gifts in the kitchen that I possess can be directly attributed to her. She cooked and baked from scratch every single day for her six children, even though she worked full time.  

She has a bachelor's in home economics, and can sew, cook, bake, invent, clean, decorate, and cut hair. As the Director of Home Economics for Vita-Mix, she wrote The Versatile Vita-Mix cookbook published in 1993. Though she now works for the USDA, she continues to test recipes and make the most delicious meals and baked goods. I wish she could run a Bed & Breakfast, or even a bakery.

She is the real deal, and her talents and gifts have inspired me since I was a little girl wanting to learn to do the same things she did well.

So when you see a recipe with my mom's name next to it, like Rose's Rolls AKA Best Rolls Ever, you should definitely try it. Her recipes will make you famous within your circles.

Print Your Own Wride's Guide Cookbook

Thanks to Google Drive, I'm including links to the cookbook files so that you can print your very own copy of Wride's Guide to Good Home Cookin'!

Materials:

Besides a printer, you'll need:

• a 2" binder with clear sleeve for cover

• 80-120 lbs. cardstock for cover and dividers

• 20 lbs. printer paper

• 3-hole punch

Optional: 70 sheet protectors (for both dividers and interior recipe pages). The dividers print file includes DIY tabs, so you can choose to attach matching tabs to the dividers for a papercrafty-look (see images at end of post), OR slip divider pages into sheet protectors. *I highly recommend that all the recipe pages are put in sheet protectors, unless you're an immaculate cook without elvish helpers.
