Description
Mary Janet MacDonald launched her Facebook group, Tunes and Wooden Spoons, in the spring of 2020, more for a lark than anything and to have some fun with family and friends.
Well, she has been having a ton of fun. Never, though, did she think in her wildest dreams that her Cape Breton Cinnamon Buns would turn her into a social media sensation. Today, her followers have grown to more than 50,000 and she is must-see viewing for anybody who loves down-home cooking, and Cape Breton charm.
Tunes and Wooden Spoons, the cookbook, is the one we've all been waiting for. Complete with her most popular recipes, and, mixed, of course, with more than a pinch of that famous Cape Breton wit.
About the author
Mary Janet MacDonald is the most unusual of celebrities. She took Facebook by storm just as much for her warmth and kindness as for her prowess in the kitchen. Her cooking and baking skills were learned at her mother's apron strings as were mothers before her. She conveys those recipes with a deftness and a recognition of the importance they have played in her life as a mother and grandmother. And to top it off, Mary Janet seems to know or be related to every musician and step dancer in Cape Breton.
