They're exceptionally good for prereaders and developing readers (and the food is good too). <br /><br />We did find that the Green Garden Dip was too garlicky for us (which is going some). :)christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17118223488021151633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-76239632517938917402009-06-22T16:12:36.899-05:002009-06-22T16:12:36.899-05:00We love the library too - it's our favorite fr...We love the library too - it's our favorite frugal habit! Traditional Ranch dressing has lots of salt and some sugar in it - perhaps adding a bit to this recipe will give it the zip you are used to! We love making dip - the favorite here is my sweet dilly dip! Very simple, and always a hit!Heather Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563913535839786305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-12247440381489785712009-06-22T15:43:05.585-05:002009-06-22T15:43:05.585-05:00I love Mollie Katzen's cookbooks!

Good grief, that's about unbearable in my book! And then, to make it worse, we have to drag into Peoria(about 50 minutes away) for driver's ed for my 15 year old. And it seems like even when you're in and out of an air-conditioned van and stores, the heat is still just about unbearable. So anyway, that's what's happening in Central Illinois today!<br /> Andrew is about as cute as they come! The garden looks wonderful, and the whole garden cokbook thing sounds like something we would like, too. My husband and the kids (not so much me because I am always inside it seems, cleaning up!) have an enormous garden, so we're always looking for good ideas for when the produce comes rolling in!<br /> Have a great day, Meredith. Stay cool!<br /> Susan in Illinois :-)Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03794795142708229053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-5819446681147727342009-06-22T10:04:29.791-05:002009-06-22T10:04:29.791-05:00Love your cookbook idea.
