From:
Katt Turner and Mother-in-Law Anna
Date: September 2009

Dear Holiday Planner,

You're probably excitedly looking forward to unpacking treasured orna-
ments, tinsels, tree toppers. Setting up, decorating the tree. Gathering
trimmings to spread cheer throughout hearth and home. The pleasure
planning and cooking festive meals brings. The thrill of finding the
perfect gift for that special person or family member.

Perhaps, just like us. Excited. Looking forward to experiencing the
joy this beautiful season will bring.

    Yet exhausted at the thought of all the work to come.
        Worried if you’ll have the time and energy to get it
                            all done. And done right.

I'm Katt Turner. And I know how you feel.

Christmas is a time of gladness. Family, friends, co-workers gather
to celebrate a season of joy. Yet it's often so hectic you can end up
stressed out. Exhausted and overwhelmed. Not to mention broke,
with prices rising.

From a large family, I’d always helped mother organize Christmas
family gatherings. The two of us starting our decorating and prepa-
rations for the festive season early in October.  Like 2 elves on
caffeine overload, we worked daily. Organizing the tree. Wrapping
and packing gifts. Then up at dawn Christmas morning. Ready to
start cooking Christmas dinner.  The two of us, exhausted and in
bed with a headache, before the last guest left. Perhaps you can
relate.

Without warning, Mom passed away. And, believe me. It was a
shock.

While I love the holidays. To cook and bake too, I was truly up
in the air about hosting them with her gone. Even a bit confused
about where to start. Only two other family members had the
desire to help. So organizing Christmas and Thanksgiving would
be much different with Mom's  loss. 

It was time to make some changes. 


Prices for holiday decor, food and gifts were rising...

So as I sat with my tea, and began to think it all out, it was clear
my objectives should be to make things easier. Faster. To create
the best season ever. But do it less expensively.  With those
priorities in mind I began, first, reviewing and organizing the
hundreds of unique family recipes Italian mother-in-law Anna
passed on to me.

Eighty-eight, and in failing health, Ann hadn't cooked in years.
Yet she'd been a great cook. Baking tons of delectable cookies
for family, friends over the years. Whipping up wonderful
holiday dinners for the family. She'd passed on to me tons of
great recipes. Some her own creations; many others passed
down to her - through the decades - by family members. 

It was time to gather those old, well-loved family recipes
together. Not only to cook and bake, but I'd organize them
into simple cookbooks to share with family. Bake some
recipes and give them to friends as gifts. 

I'm not kidding one bit when I say....

All those wonderful recipes of Ann's were packed into a size 10
shoe box. On handwritten scraps of paper.  Yellowed with age.
Corners turned up, frayed and ripped. Requiring handling with
care. In fact, some of the writing was downright indecipher-
able.

So I called Anna to help me out.

We began organizing recipes by groups. Appetizers, vege-
tables, dinners, sauces, cookies, desserts. Organizing the recipes
by type would make it faster to browse what’s available.
Easier
to find the perfect recipe for dinner, dessert or a party.

In the end, we chose the best of her traditional family recipes.
Culled out those too complex and time consuming to cook or bake
during a busy holiday season.  Then added in a cross section of
some tasty, unique and less traditional recipes from my family. 

These are time-tested recipes. Easy to cook and bake. Not just for
holidays like Thanksgiving and New Years. You can prepare them
for almost any special occasion throughout the year.

Here's a sampling of the 75 incredible recipes in our first
ebook "Simply Luscious Easy Bake Recipes to Warm Your
Soul""

  •        Family dinners often become memorable events
                                    during the holidays.                        
                        

    In fact, often these dinners are family gatherings most look forward
    to year after year.
    Times loved ones gather not only to share
    delectable meals but warm companionship. And whether you choose
    to serve one, or many, of our favorite recipes to family and friends.
    Or a few to accompany annual favorites. You'll introduce tastes that
    can easily become welcome traditions.

    While great meals are always so appreciated during this joyful season.
    And like a wonderful gift to friends and family.

                                        
               No gift is as welcome as one personally baked and
                                 created for someone special.                  

    So we've also included some Holiday Gifts you can easily create.

    But we didn’t stop there.
