Where's Mom Now That I Need Her?: Surviving Away from Home

From the back cover:

"You've seen plenty of traditional cookbooks before...most of them are loaded with glossy color photographs of all kinds of magnificent foods -- most of which are too difficult or too time consuming to tackle."

"This is a cookbook with a difference. Sure, you'll still find recipes for all kinds of delectable goodies--and some wholesome staples, besides!"

"In short, you'll find everything you need to know to survive away from home. There's an extensive stain-removal guide. A succinct first aid section. A List of common symptoms for common illnesses--and a guide that lets you know when you're sick enough to call a doctor. A brief car and bicycle maintenance guide to help guarantee that you're not grounded."

"And, because you'll be missing Mom, we've even added space at the end of each recipe section where you--or she--can pen in her old standbys--those time-honored recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation, delighting familiy members at Thanksgiving dinners and summer picnics, alike."
