Start Again from Scratch is the real-life, no-fail recipe Laine Lawson Craft and her husband Steve put to the test to revive their failing marriage. After 17 years of misery, the Crafts decided to throw out the marital mess they had burnt to a crisp and cook up a whole new recipe for wedded bliss. Twelve years later, the happy couple are not only husband and wife but also the very best of friends, parents of three grown children who can’t wait to retire someday, sit on the front porch and watch some spectacular sunsets. Start Again from Scratch was written for desperate couples on the brink of divorce, couples who, as Steve once said of Laine, “would rather live the rest of their lives with the devil than spend one more minute with their husband or wife.” Laine and Steve use the metaphor of cooking to show couples how to add fresh quality ingredients like forgiveness and trust into whole new recipe for marriage, then follow the right directions to serve up a delicious new marriage dish. Laine even includes some of her favorite recipes at the end of each chapter, in hopes that satisfied stomachs will help heal hurting hearts. Every couple, but especially those who think there is no hope left, can experience a miracle in their marriage if they read this book and follow the recipe for a whole new life. As the Crafts can tell you, the proof is in the pudding (and don’t miss Laine’s fantastic homemade Banana Pudding recipe at the end of the book).
