Cowboy Bites: A Rough Riders Cookbook by Suzanne M. Johnson, Lorelei James

I loved visiting again with the beloved McKays from the Rough Riders series. I especially enjoyed the glimpse at the different couples with kids. These short stories range from light-hearted family fun to addressing serious issues.

My two favorite stories (I couldn’t pick just one!) were All Jammed Up and Recipe for Trouble. Note the creative story names, which had me laughing! In All Jammed Up, Keely making jam with her little ones was precious and reminded me of the importance of spending quality time with our kids. It doesn’t have to be perfect; it’s about the experience and memories. And, all the puns in the story were hilarious!

In Recipe for Trouble, I could relate to Indy so much as she struggled with her career issues. Colt proved again why he’s my favorite McKay with how he helped Indy by empowering her.

I can’t wait to try these recipes. All of them sound delicious! The Flank Steak Philly Steak with the Buffaloed Brussels Sprouts are at the top of my list. I will definitely give the drink recipes a try too.

Rough Rider fans are in for a treat!
