But life as an overworked, undervalued sous chef at a reality star's New York bakery is not what Sam dreamed. <p/>When the chef embarrasses Sam, she quits and returns home. Unemployed, single, and defeated, she spends a summer working on her family's orchard cooking and baking alongside the women in her life--including her mother, Deana, and grandmother, Willo. One beloved, flour-flecked, ink-smeared recipe at a time, Sam begins to learn about and understand the women in her life, her family's history, and her passion for food through their treasured recipe box. <p/>As Sam discovers what matters most she opens her heart to a man she left behind, but who now might be the key to her happiness.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <p>Praise for <i>The Recipe Box</i> <p/>An easy, delightful novel <i>-Good Housekeeping</i> <p/>"Shipman's (<i>The Charm Bracelet; The Hope Chest</i>) multigenerational creation skillfully layers the triumphs and struggles of each family member with recurring adages proven true no matter the era.
