Eat Yourself Full

the long version

Eat Yourself Full: Pennsylvania Dutch Cookery for Feinschmeckers by Ruth R Tyndall. Published by David McKay Co Inc, NY, 1967. The author has recorded all that she and her family have liked best about the Pennsylvania Dutch cuisine, and the special occasions surrounding much of it, as they have cooked and eaten it over the years. In a joyful, nostalgic fashion, she offers not just a treasury of rich, delicious recipes and menus, but a folk history of a kind, describing such traditional events as barn raising, market days, the feeding of the threshers, wedding customs, apple-butter-and-cider set-outs, Fourth of July picnics, and other celebrations at which food is always featured.
