Written by her daughter Leslie, the book chronicles what it was like living with Doris, a mom who had a knack in the kitchen but lacked a 10 second delay mechanism on her actions that caused life never to be dull or boring for her children. \"She was a mother who marched to the beat of a different drummer, and if she thought it, she said it --- without a filter,\" says Leslie. Growing Up with Doris never sways from Doris' true calling as a mother, which involved feeding her family, her children's playmates and a convent full of Notre Dame nuns. For anyone growing up in those eventful decades, Growing Up with Doris is an honest, endearing, and humorous account of a funny, one-of-a-kind mother whose wit, dedication, and tenacity is an inspiration on making the best of what life deals you. While writing the memoir, Leslie saw a theme emerging, mainly around food, so she decided to write a companion cookbook with her mother featuring 140 family recipes. The cookbook, Cooking with Doris B. is ideal for anyone beginning to cook or experienced in the kitchen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leslie Ann Breen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0984244700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780984244706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lab Publications LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.54d","brand":"Leslie Ann Breen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48435770687743,"sku":"9780984244706","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cf4a579e-4683-4e34-8cdd-9093caac4df4.jpg?v=1777152609","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/growing-up-with-doris-leslie-ann-breen-9780984244706","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
