By Olia Hercules. This cookbook has so much that we at Booklady Cooks love! It is subtitled "Recipes and Reminiscences from Every Corner of Ukraine" and digs deep into the culture and history of Ukraine and the use of a summer kitchen - an outdoor or garden shed which was the heart of the home in the summer. Gorgeous pictures and delectable recipes just begging to be a part of your summer. Besides the wonderful stories there are also menu suggestions in an appendix. We LOVE menus. Menus are like little snapshots into a time and a place and the people who share the meals.
