A group of women in Gatesville, Texas may not have an oven, refrigerator, stove, or even the ability to boil water, but they do have plenty of time to spare.
Some a half a century in fact. And that, combined with a few peculiar ingredients and a desire to cook has resulted in a rather unusual cookbook – "From The Big House to Your House," a collection of 200 recipes by six Texas prison inmates.
The women all are serving at least 50 years at the Mountain View Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, all but one of them for murder. A desire for foods they enjoyed on the outside has enabled them to get creative behind bars.
