Synopsis
Excerpt from When Mother Lets Us Cook: A Book of Simple Receipts for Little Folk, With Important Cooking Rules in Rhyme, Together With Handy Lists of the Materials and Utensils Needed for the Preparation of Each Dish
To make something that we can eat Surely it is always delightful to do this, and never quite so nice as when it is a stormy day, and one is - well - ten or twelve years old. My aim has been to give in this little book a few simple rules and receipts, which may serve as a beginning, and help small folks to have their fun without troubling mother and the cook too much; yet I trust that these directions may prove useful to them even when they are grown-up house keepers.
The selection is made with a View to economy and a child's diet.
