There are 29 Appetizers; 16 Beverages; 27 Soups; 77 Salads (includes 8 salad dressings); 53 Vegetables and Sides; 150 Main Dishes; 49 Bread recipes; 78 Cakes; 39 Pies & Cobblers; 35 Miscellaneous Desserts; 48 Cookies & Brownies; 35 Candy recipes and 14 in the This & That category, which includes pickle recipes.

The picture on the cover is the first Thanksgiving in Winton in November 1911. Eight other pictures from Winton's past are included, one on each divider. Five pictures are from the Merced County Historical Society.

This is a 3-ring binder (approximately 8 X 9 1/2") published by Morris Press. We are selling the recipe books for $15.00 each at the local community functions throughout the year or from a committee member. The books are available now.
