I do not normally just sit around reading cookbooks, and I did not intend to read this one. I just picked it up to glance through it and see what recipes there were, but before I knew it I had just sat there and finished the whole thing. And it was delightful! Which was expected, as I'm familiar with her blog and have been delighted by it in the past (two recipes from there make regular appearances in my cooking repertoire, and countless others have been bookmarked or jotted down or printed out for when I am feeling adventurous).
It is a lovely little book with lovely little anecdotes and lovely pictures. It made me very hungry to read it and made me think that I really should make more of an effort in my cooking. And she is so friendly about it all!
I would have given it five stars, but I am afraid I was forced to take one off because of all the recipes contained in the book that I would not want to make or have offered to me. I liked reading about them though anyway! ...more
