Sweet Dreams · Recipes From a Lifetime in Turners Bend

Sweet Dreams is the story of a lifetime of hard times, grief and ultimate success told through memories linked to recipes. Bernice Hayes Larson is the waitress at the Cinnamon Bun Café in Turners Bend, Iowa, population 932. She shares her favorite recipes for sweet treats, everything from Rhubarb-Peach Pie to Scruffy’s Canine Cookies, and in doing so reveals a woman who perseveres through tough times and ends up a winner.

Readers first encountered Bernice in the Can Be Murder Series. Told with humor and served with a dollop of homespun advice, readers will again enjoy this beloved character.

Marilyn Rausch, along with co-author Mary Donlon, is the author of Headaches Can Be Murder and Love Can Be Murder. She is a retired researcher/trainer/teacher and lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with her cat Kip.

Includes a preview chapter of the newest Turners Bend novella, Christmas in Turners Bend. Now available in electronic and print versions.
