The GenX Latchkey Kid Recipe and Activity Guidebook isn't your typical cookbook. It's a trip down memory lane. Yes, it's full of nostalgic food we ate, but it's more than just recipes. It's a collective generational experience of food, games, and activities. Most of us had little to no supervision, so some of the food we consumed was bizarre, and the activities we engaged in were borderline dangerous. But somehow, we survived. Well, most of us survived. We are a generation of sarcastic, slightly cynical DIY masters, but we sure know how to take care of ourselves (and each other)! I hope anyone who picks up this book has a few laughs and some fond memories from days gone by. Enjoy!

Praise for this book

"All the awesome feels from childhood! This book is so entertaining and it takes you right back to a fun and easy time in our lives. It is really well written. I swear that I could smell the cinnamon toast while reading the recipe. This was a pure joy to read!" - Betsy Lewis, Actual GenX'er

"Shaley Howard totally nails the GenX vibe. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking up the GenX guidebook. I even took the day off to read it!"-Ferris Bueller

"Calling all brains, athletes, basket cases, princesses, and criminals! I just found the ultimate book for detention...or anytime, really. Howard takes us on a hilarious, nostalgic trip back to our reckless, unsupervised youth. Don't be a neo maxi zoom dweebie-get your copy today! Oh, and stay out of Barry Manilow's closet!"-The Breakfast Club

"What's your damage?! How do you not have this book yet?"-Veronica from Heathers

What a fun book! I had totally forgotten about fluffernutters! Such a funny trip down memory lane. Kids today don't know how good they have it.

Now I'm going to have to make some cinnamon toast and slide down the playground slide at 1000 mph. Thanks!" - D Humphrey, actual GenX'er

"I don't get it."-Shawn Tait, Actual GenZ'er
