A Delightful Book

I love the recipes in this book. This is my second purchase of the book. I gave my first copy to my sister. I was moving to another state and wanted to trim moving expenses. Eventually I decided to buy another copy. The recipes are easy and delicious. The pages are filled with information. It's an excellent choice to add to a cookbook collection, or to give as a gift.

Delicious!

I have bought several copies of this book for friends and they agree the recipes in this book are spectacular. The lemon bars are my new standard recipe!

Bravo! The book to buy!

The recipes in this book are easy to understand and carry through. The cookies are big, delicious, and a joy to make. Awesome book!

Just the recipes I wanted!

I saw James and Andrew teach at Sur la Table last fall and I thought their recipes were delicious! I remain particularly smitten by the old-fashioned brownies (with frosting!) and the gingersnaps. There are several other typical cafe recipes in here--biscotti, some tasty scones, more cookies. There aren't a ton of recipes, but every one of them is for something you already know you love--no weirdos. The book is beautiful and the recipes work--what more could you ask for? Maybe someone to make the coffee.
