Penderlea Homestead Museum Cookbook To Be Featured in OUR STATE Magazine.

"Recipes and Remembrances"  will be featured in the April issue of Our State magazine, according to Frances Murphy Love who spoke recently with Senior Editor Diane Summerville. Frances and her sister, Betty Murphy Klavins compiled the cookbook for the Museum in 2008.

"Recipes and Remembrances" is a cookbook which was designed to honor the original settlers of the Penderlea Homesteads. It includes recipes and memories contributed by families of those original settlers, members of the present community at large, and special friends and extended families. Proceeds benefit the Penderlea Homestead Museum, a non-profit organization.

The cookbooks are on sale at the musuem for $12 each or 2 for $20. Call Al and Carrie Owens at 910-250-7984 to order by mail for $15 each.
