Cross Creek Kitchens II

I'm reading Sally Morrison's cookbook the way I have read some of Marjorie's short stories, delightfully. Morrison is a state park ranger and the curator of Marjorie's Cross Creek house. According to the book, she cooks and bakes on the original woodstove and fills the pantry with preserves she makes from the same trees and gardens that Rawlings once tended. This seems to me to be as close as possible to the culinary Marjorie.

Morrison's gingerbread waffles on page 87 have passed muster at the B&B table. Offered with a little orange butter, they are ambrosial.
