With Best Wishes From Your Congressman
James J. B coyhitl
CONGRESSMAN JAMES T. BROYHILL
House Of Representatives
Washington, D. C.
Dear Friends:
As a token of our appreciation for your confidence and
support, Loulse and | would like to share with you a new
collection of recipes which our friends in the Congress and
in Washington have given us.
We have tried to provide you with a delicious cross-section
of recipes from all over this great country of ours, and we
believe you will find the selections in this cookbook as
delightful as the communities and states which they represent.
This cookbook also serves as my pledge to you, the people
whom | serve In the Congress, to continue the same quality of
service which | first began back in 1962. However, government
is only as good as the people behind it, and I look to you
for your opinions, advice, and suggestions.
Many, many thanks for your continued support.
Louise and | hope you will enjoy the opportunities for
good eating which you find within these pages.
With best regards,
