I love this book

This book is so warm and inviting to me. I loved it so much that I bought it for my little sister, as well as myself. She loved it too. If you are a lover of the Autumn season, and I am, then you will also love this book, I am sure.

If you like Autumn, you'll LOVE this book!

This is the perfect book for celebrating all the joys of Autumn - cozy recipes, decorating tips, memory-provoking stories, and ideas for all-out Autumnal merrymaking! Get this book, put on your coziest sweater, make yourself a cup of tea or cocoa, light a little candle or the fireplace, and dive into the beautiful pages. Then, tomorrow, dive into a pile of leaves!

Supercalifragilistic

This has to be the best of all from Susan Branch -- how she keeps her work so fresh and interesting is absolutly amazing plus she has the best recipes you can find in any book -- I get her annual newsletter "Willard" and in it she says she tests all that she includes --and I believe it. That shows me how hard she works and how much she cares ... She let us all know AUTUMN would be coming out in her letter and I was one of the first in line to get it -- and could not lay it down until I had read it cover to cover -- It`s that interesting! --and the artwork is-- -- a work of ART ! Facinating ! I cant wait for October to get here so I can make that Gingerbread Cake for Halloween . My daughter says,"when she grows up she wants to BE Susan Branch!" This is a smart kid ...and Thank You Susan , You Made Our Day !

Experience a New England autumn where ever you are

Branch's latest book "Autumn from the Heart of the Home" is packed with quotes, stories, decorating tips, gift ideas, and, of course, the delicious recipes she is known for. Readers can enjoy appetizers like Indian Shuck Bread with Maple Butter and "football fan tested and approved" Crunchy Chicken. Side dishes like Potatoes Anna with Branch's own special twist is sure to make mouths' water. The Main Dish section includes such delicacies as Braised Lamb Shanks and Lime Salmon. There are also kid-friendly meals like Chicken in Cream Sauce over Happy Rice, Macaroni and Cheese, and Potato Bugs. Like all of her books, Branch has included a selection of delectable desserts. Fall favorites like Gingerbread Cake and Cranberry Apple Crisp provide homey warmth as the days grow cooler. For those special occasions, readers will want to try the French Éclair Wreath or Toasted Snowballs in Chocolate Sauce. Branch also provides several cookie recipes (the brownies truly are "the best"). "Autumn from the Heart of the Home" also has ideas and recipes for Halloween parties, Thanksgiving gatherings, and fall picnics. Branch's books just keep getting better and better. Each one motivates me to add special touches to my home and fill my house with friends. By sharing her stories and memories, she inspires me to carry on my family traditions and create new ones with my children. I think this book is my favorite so far. Since moving to California, I miss those New England autumns. Reading "Autumn from the Heart of the Home" was almost like taking a trip back.
