Tucked away in a little mountain community dotted with oak, cedar and pine trees, you’ll find a couple, Betty and Con Coonrad, sipping coffee on the deck of their historic cedar-sided cottage cabin built in 1927. This hamlet, Twain Harte, is located in the southern area of California’s Mother Lode country. It’s been the home of Mook (the name her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren affectionately call her) and Pop for more than fifteen years.
Fresh brewed coffee isn’t the only aroma emanating from the kitchen; you’ll also find the enticing fragrance of some baked good emanating from the tiny oven. Could it be a loaf of oatmeal bread or possibly a batch of chocolate chip cookies or fruit bars? Maybe Mook is baking several loaves of banana nut bread.
Whatever’s part of the baking agenda, it encompasses a long tradition of expertise, skill and knowledge of an almost 82-year-old lady. After many years of trying this, that, and all sorts of varying and crazy formulas, Mook’s achieved the ultimate goal in perfecting a series of recipes…and she wants to share them with you.
