The Pioneer Woman Cooks

I love food. I love my family. I love photography. I think Ree
Drummond and I have a lot in common, OK, I didn’t marry a cowboy or
live on a ranch, but we both have four children, two boys and two
girls. We both take random photographs of objects we consider
beautiful…as I say, we have things in common!
This book came today and I just can’t put it down! Those who know me
will also know that I have a ‘thing’ for American recipes, and what
could be nicer than to have recipes for such homely goodies as
cinnamon rolls, enchiladas, sour cream pancakes, spicy pulled pork,
all mixed up with tales of her ‘marlboro man’ husband, stunning
photographs of the ranch, the children and all the animals!
This book has gotten me so enthused I want to emigrate to Oklahoma and
live on a cattle ranch (well maybe not, but you get the picture!) the
layout is clear and colourful with lots of step-by-step photographs.
Check out the Pioneer womans website. It’s great! I love her writing.
It’s enchanting! I’m thinking of dying my hair red – but that would be
plain old stalky right? ;-))

Anna! I feel like your blog has been eluding me for a while. Nice to be back here reading it. I have a thing for American recipes too…maybe it's because we always seemed to look to American culture here in NZ when I was growing up. Or because their food tastes so good! The fact that this woman started out as a blogger and now has a book is pretty inspirational.

This is a lovely cookbook. I gave a copy of it to my sis-in-law this evening as a birthday gift. She was thrilled! These are my kind of recipes, Anna. Just love them. What have you made? xo

I'm a fan of her too. I also love Bakerella (do you read her blog?) and last year Bakerella and Pioneer Woman met up and cooked up a storm in PW's kitchen! I so wanted to be there!!

I've become a regular reader of her blog also, and I've made several of her recipes. The restaurant-style salsa is a winner! But Anna, I've been to Oklahoma. I don't think you want to move there.

Anna, I have heard about this woman for a while, but this is the first time I've seen her picture. I'm afraid I had her 'type cast' as a bit of a younger fuller-figured Granny Clampit, complete with long skirt and apron, obviously NOT! I hope you cook some of these recipes, they sound delicious:D
