    Recipe Introduction

    Who was Mother Goose? The answer is many different writers. The term "Mother Goose" has been traced back to 1650 when a French book carried the line, "Like a Mother Goose story". It was first used in the title of a nursery rhyme collection about 1765 when "Mother Goose's Melody" was published. The name caught on, and nursery rhymes have been attributed to Mother Goose ever since.
