Book excerpt: "Over the River and Through the Woods: Recipes from Grandma's House" brings together 70-plus years of recipes, cooking and baking tips, along with life lessons from a woman who learned early on to, "make the most of what you have."Patricia Mae Vey Harris, born in 1929 in Seattle, watched her parents make ends meet during the Great Depression. She learned to cook and bake from necessity, but found she liked the challenge. With six children, a husband and many guests over the years at the family home in Plain, Washington, she had plenty of opportunity to hone her skills.She opened the Plain Bakery in the 1970s, offering homemade bread, pastries and cookies in the red cabin built by her husband's grandparents. She published The Red Cabin Cookbook in 1981.During the decades that followed, she polished her culinary skills with stints as a chef at a summer camp, hospital, mountain-top resort and German restaurant, which created an entirely new collection of recipes."Over the River and Through the Woods: Recipes from Grandma's House" includes many of those along with the most-often requested family favorites and behind-the-scenes stories of life, laughter, lizards and liver loaf.
