The Working Stiff Cookbook: Great Food! Easy Recipes! | Written by Bob Sloan | Illustrated by Michael Klein | 1998 Vintage Cookbook

The Working Stiff Cookbook was written by Bob Sloan, published by Chronicle Books in 1998. According to the introduction...

"Hi, honey. I'm home!" The mantra of the fifties when all the men worked and all the women knew how to cook. These days it seems everybody works and no one knows how to cook. Instead of being the reward at the end of a long day's work, dinner has become a b burden, a tiresome chore to be disposed of as expediently as possible... The Working Stiff Cookbook is for the courage, those cavalier individuals who may not have the strongest cooking chops but are willing to try b because they know they deserve a meal, at the end of a long day, that is satisfying to both their palate and their soul."
