From Julia's Kitchen: Owen Family Cookery Kindle Edition

by Marsha Ward (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 2 ratings
See all formats and editions
When Julia Susannah Helm was just a little girl in Pennsylvania, she discovered a “receipt” for hash in a kitchen drawer, written out in the hand of her father’s former housekeeper. Her brother Jonathan made her a small wooden box to keep it in. That was the beginning of her recipe collection, which became one of her most cherished possessions.

It was never more important to her than when she took it to Shenandoah County, Virginia, to help her cousin prepare for her wedding. Almost out of the blue, Julia became Mrs. Roderick Owen, and the recipe collection proved invaluable to her as a young bride.

Enjoy the fictional aspects of this book in the world of the Owen Family, and then make the real recipes to enjoy.

About the Author

Marsha Ward was born in the sleepy little town of Phoenix, Arizona, in the southwestern United States; and grew up with chickens, citrus trees, and lots of room to roam. She became a storyteller at an early age, regaling her neighborhood friends with her fanciful tales during after-school snacks. Her love of the 19th Century Western period was reinforced by visits to her cousins on their ranch and listening to her father's stories of homesteading in Old Mexico and in the southern part of Arizona. Over the years, Marsha became an award-winning poet, writer and editor, with over 900 pieces of published work, including her acclaimed historical Old West novel series, The Owen Family Saga. She is the founder of American Night Writers Association, and a member of Western Writers of America and several other writers' associations. She makes her home in a tiny forest hamlet in Arizona. When she is not writing, she loves to travel, give talks, meet readers, and sign books. Visit her website at marshaward.com.

Marsha Ward writes authentic historical fiction set in 19th Century America, including the Western Migration following the Civil War. She was born in the sleepy little town of Phoenix, Arizona, in a simpler time, somewhere in the middle of seven children. That may account for her love of large, boisterous families, and her OWEN FAMILY novels and stories.

With plenty of room to roam among the chickens and citrus trees on her family's property, Marsha enjoyed playing with neighborhood chums until her mother rang the cowbell at nightfall, but she always had her imaginary friend, cowboy Johnny Rigger Prescott, at her side. Now she makes her home in a forest in the mountains of Arizona. She loves to hear from her readers.

THE OWEN FAMILY SAGA series, currently containing a novella and five novels, is ongoing because the Characters in Marsha's Head keep begging for their own stories. Marsha continues to add new adventures to the OWEN FAMILY Universe, and companion stories to the spin-off world labeled SHENANDOAH NEIGHBORS.

For maximum reading pleasure, stories in the THE OWEN FAMILY SAGA and other OWEN FAMILY and SHENANDOAH NEIGHBORS stories are best read in the following order:

* That Tender Light: An Owen Family Novella (the Origin Story - 1840)

* The Apple Pie Prize: An Owen Family Story (1850)

* Gone for a Soldier: The Owen Family Saga Book 1 (Virginia, 1861-1865)

* Mended by Moonlight: A Shenandoah Neighbors Novella (Virginia, 1865)

* The Man from Shenandoah: The Owen Family Saga Book 2 (Multiple locations, 1865)

* Spinster's Folly: The Owen Family Saga Book 3 (Colorado Territory, 1866)

* Scandalous: An Owen Family Story (Colorado Territory, 1866)

* Ride to Raton: The Owen Family Saga Book 4 (Colorado & New Mexico Territories, 1866)

* Trail of Storms: The Owen Family Saga Book 5 (Multiple locations, 1866)

* Ned's Choice: A Shenandoah Neighbors Story (New Mexico and Colorado Territories, 1867)

* Surprising Charity: Shenandoah Neighbors (New Mexico Territory, 1867)

* Broken: A Shenandoah Neighbors Story (Colorado Territory, 1875)

* Bloodied Leather: A Shenandoah Neighbors Story (California, 1886)

Saguaro Blossom
5.0 out of 5 stars Charming mix of Historic Recipes and Stories
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2017
If you like cookbooks, or maybe even if you don't, you'll enjoy this! The recipes are charming and historic, many with imprecise cooking times, measurements, and ingredients--with no guarantee that they will work in your kitchen. Marsha Ward weaves pieces of fictional Julia Owen's history into what she's cooking in the kitchen. It's a different type of book. For me, it created a delight of memories of cooking with my grandmother—everything from fruit jelly to lye soap. The recipes remind me of the way I was brought up in the kitchen by my mother and grandmother, making everything from scratch with the ingredients we had. My favorite is the recipe about how to make tough meat tender. We still use it--the old-fashioned pit barbecue!
