Why is this cookbook geared toward moms? Fathers and other caregivers need recipes for their families, too. Why are we holding so tight to the 50s?

heather August 18, 2011 at 2:46 pm: Where does it say it’s geared toward moms only and not dads or other caregivers?
She calls herself the $5 dinner mom (because she’s a mom) and it’s the Dinner and lunch cookbook.
I have it and there is no place in it where she says who can and cannot use it. she just shares recipes and tips that she uses with her family.

Are the recipes suitable for a diabetic? I hope they are because I am so bored with my menues. Pastas, potatoes and rice can really elevate glucose rapidly. So, I am hoping they are not based on those 3 stales.

Julieanne October 2, 2011 at 9:07 pm

I already have both of the books and have fallen in love with them- I even made the Pumpkin Applesauce and my family back home loved it and wondered how they could get the recipe. I was a hit.

Erin, The $5 Dinner Mom October 3, 2011 at 7:40 am: Thanks Julieanne! That’s so great to hear!!!
