Amazing cookbook for those who have/want to do it themselves. Written by a couple who moved from Greenwich Village to a rural North Carolina town where they couldn't even get nice baked bread locally - they describe how to make tons of favorites from baguettes to home-made sausages - and give seasonal recipe suggestions. There are no 30 minute meals here, but if you love food, this is a great read.
