A great believer in traditions, as are other families around the globe, many of Wanda's family traditions came to include favorite dessert recipes for holidays, cookouts and gatherings of every sort. Over the years, she received more requests than she could count to assemble a collection of these recipes. However, the only time she did so was when each of her children married. She gathered favorite dessert recipes together and presented them to the brides in a hand-bound book at their bridal showers. The requests from other family members and friends continued and increased. So, due to popular demand, Wanda now ventures away from her usual writing genres to present this recipe book of SWEET TRADITIONS.
