I hate wasting good stuff, so I collected these recipes. After months in the kitchen and careful testing by a dedicated group of Recipe tasters, I am revealing the answer in this recipe collection!

Yum . and thank you” Rawsome Creations – Lara Moraga www.rawsomecreations.com UPC: Rawsome Creations More than a Nut Milk Bag Recipe Collection by Brenda Hinton Dear Reader, Thank you for looking at my collection of recipes. This place in a book is where you usually find praiseful words from famous people . but I don’t know any famous people, and anyway, this is not a book of, by, or for famous people. The simple fact that you have picked up my book and are reading these words means that you are exactly the kind of person whose feedback will be most valuable to me and future readers. So if you read this book, and find it useful (or find ways that you think I could make it more useful) I would like to hear from you. I am especially interested to know if you had problems with any of the recipes, or if I can make the directions clearer. Also, your sug- gestions of variations and improvements are very welcome. I hope to have a page or two of readers’ thoughts for this collection’s next edition. Please let me know if you like my book, and a few words about why. I love to hear from you, so email me: [email protected] Again, thank you.
