Early Kentucky cookbooks part of genealogy event 2020-02-09 - Columbia - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Among the recommended cookbooks presented by Mary Anne Loy Saturday was "Mrs. Wiggs of The Cabbage Patch" which came from/or led to "Cabbage Patch Famous Recipes of Kentucky." Even if you don’t want to cook, she said, this is fun book to read about people who found themselves living in Louisville, barely getting by in the old part of Louisville.

The photos behind the books are of her mother, Ila Mae Rankin Martin, on the left and her grandmothers on the right who, she said, were gave her the most guidance in food management and cooking growing up in Harrodsburg, KY.
