"The Amish Cook" by Lovina Eicher
Lovina, along with her husband, Joe, are raising eight children on their rural southern Michigan homestead. Lovina inherited the Amish Cook column from her mother, Elizabeth Coblentz. Each week, Lovina, in much the same way her mother did for 10 years, shares snippets of her traditional Old Order Amish life. Anyone with cultural or cooking questions can send them to: Lovina Eicher, The Amish Cook, P.O. Box 2144, Middletown, OH 45042.
