Mushroom Cookery, published 1965
From soup to nuts - Mushroom Chowder to Nutty Mushroom Balls - and all the courses in between; from home cuisine to haute cuisine - here is the book for those who delight in this particular food of the gods. A separate chapter is devoted to the many uses of dried mushrooms; another discusses canned and frozen mushrooms; and there is a short, lively guide to hunting and cooking wild mushrooms. Rosetta was on the TV program, To Tell the Truth, around the time this cookbook was published. She was the "real" mushroom expert. That's how they said it, after the panel asked questions of the expert and two imposters: "Will the 'real' mushroom expert please stand up?" |
Menopause, A Positive Approach, published 1977 Rosetta's research into the science and medical aspects of menopause combined with interviews with menopausal and postmenopausal women provide information about the physiological, psychological, and emotional aspects of menopause, its effects on job performance, family, sex, and friendship, and ways of coping with its various phenomena. Here's a quote from the women at Our Bodies, Ourselves: I recall that we "pored over your mother’s writing about menopause for our work on the first OBOS chapter on Women & Aging, then carried it over and expanded to (The New) Ourselves Growing Older." |
