Synopsis


Becky Johnson and her daughter Rachel Randolph come from a long line of laughter. The female side of her family tree is dotted with funny storytellers, prolific authors, hospitable home cooks, and champion chatters.
In We Love, We Laugh, We Cook, Becky—a butter and bacon loving mama—and Rachel—a vegan bean eating daughter—share stories of their crazy, wonderful, and sometimes challenging lives as Rachel becomes a mother herself.
Becky is messy; Rachel craves order. Becky forgets what month it is; Rachel is an organizational genius. (At least before baby arrives.) Sprinkled throughout are the lip-smacking, nourishing recipes they love to make and share.
From food for a family reunion of thirty, to lunch for a party of one in a high chair, to a hot meal for a sick friend, the authors demonstrate grace, acceptance, and love to others through the bonding gifts of humor, attentive listening, and cooking … whether  diners prefer beef or tofu in their stew.

I find them a bit annoying. They're seem smug about their ability to whip up a recipe so quickly. Their......more

This book should be good. It's about family and cooking and the cover is beautiful. But...I didn't connect at all with the characters and I care absolutely zero about going vegan and vegan recipes. This book just didn't do it for me at all. Trying to clear off a backlog of old Netgalley books. I rec......more

Goodreads review by Angie

Despite some clear religious and gender biases, these ladies made a cookbook into a sweet narrative, not just about the joy of food (healthy and the not-so-healthy) but also the joy the food creates around a table of family and friends which is the ultimate food experiences: creating unforgettable f......more
