Just Desserts

I couldnt finish this book without thanking my husband, Tom. His support and encouragement helped to make this a labor of live. From the beinning of July, when I first decided to write this cook book, until mid-December when it went to press, Tom kept me going with his wonderful ideas as each page unfolded. I know it meant as much to him as it did for me to remember my my mother and share these wonderful recipes with our family and friends.

And to my brothers and sisters, this is for you, for your children and for their children. I hope this book brings you all the joy and happinenss it has brought me in writing it.
