try Farmhouse.
While food editor of Food &
Wine magazine, Ms. Wyler found
the perfect country retreat—
quaint, remote, and full of good
food.
Her weekend visits to the
country permitted Ms. Wyler to
share with the people in a rural
community in northeastern
Pennsylvania and become privy
to their prized family recipes for
many outstanding dishes. Ms.
Wyler said that the majority of
recipes in the book came from
members of her small communi-
ty, having been passed down for
generations.
"The majority of dishes were
developed in my own farmhouse
kitchen with easy-to-find local in-
gredients—the kinds of stocks
found all over America with sea-
sonal fruits and vegetables," she
said.
Below are some recipes from a
country farmhouse which are
bound to earn praises from city
dwellers everywhere:

JUST KILL DRUNK DRIVERS.

stop him. Because if he kills innocent
people, how will you live with yourself?
FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS DRIVE DRUNK.
Preheat the oven to 400 de-
grees. In a large bowl, combine
the flour, sugar, baking powder,
baking soda, and salt. Whisk
gently to blend. Add the dates
and nuts and toss to coat them
with the flour mixture.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs.
Blend in the milk, melted butter,
and vanilla. Add the liquid in-
gredients to the flour mixture and
mix lightly until the batter is just
barely blended. There will be
