Peg Bracken's rules for innocents abroad: It is easier to find a traveling companion than to get rid of one; He who seeks will probably find - something else; Don't make funny remarks about the food you see coming into the dining room - it might be yours; Always have your airline ticket validated at the next stop, no matter who says you don't need to. These and hundreds of other remarkable tips on travel, plus a delicious array of Peg Bracken anecdotes, are waiting for you in this very special guide by one of today's wittiest writers.

A collection of 180 recipes and kitchen and household hints for the woman who does not like to cook

Quick & Easy

Peg Bracken's "Almanack" is a treasure of warm wit and wisdom. Yes, the recipes are retro now, and many of the references are also, but a woman's heart, remains a woman's heart. Peg will remind many of us of our best friend, or the best friend we wish we were lucky enough to have! Times change, as the seasons do in the Alamanack; Peg is a marvelous companion through changing weather. She's funny, bright, practical and imaginative. Many of her quotations will stick with you. Here's one of my favorites, an old adage: "One day may bring what a whole year has not." "The I Hate to Cook Almanack" is a keeper, highly recommended! ( amazon customer)

I Hate to Cook

Fawcett Crest Books by Ballantine Books

"There are two kinds of people in this world: the ones who don't cook out of and have NEVER cooked out of THE I HATE TO COOK BOOK, and the other kind...The I HATE TO COOK people consist mainly of those who find other things more interesting and less fattening, and so they do it as seldom as possible. Today there is an Annual Culinary Olympics, with hundreds of cooks from many countries ardently competing. But we who hate to cook have had our own Olympics for years, seeing who can get out of the kitchen the fastest and stay out the longest."  - Peg BrackenPhilosopher's Chowder. Skinny Meatloaf. Fat Man's Shrimp. Immediate Fudge Cake. These are just a few of the beloved recipes from Peg Bracken's classic I HATE TO COOK BOOK. Written in a time when women were expected to have full, delicious meals on the table for their families every night, Peg Bracken offered women who didn't revel in this obligation an alternative: quick, simple meals that took minimal effort but would still satisfy. 50 years later, times have certainly changed - but the appeal of THE I HATE TO COOK BOOK hasn't. This book is for everyone, men and women alike, who wants to get from cooking hour to cocktail hour in as little time as possible.
