every picture tells a story

I am the illustrator of this book and am trying to find the original illustrations I did 20 years ago. The originals were large and intricate and the book is a terrible representation of the original art work as some of these drawings were reduced up to 80%. However the recipes are wonderful and the feedback I've received has been great. If anyone knows where I can find this author to ask if she has the drawings, please email me at mark@tuccicreative.com. I have tried HPBooks, Penguin Press and Fisher Press with no luck.

Top of the line - don't miss this one!

There are many, many blue ribbon cookbooks, but most aren't worth the paper they're written on. This one, the author's other blue ribbon cookbook, Margie Jensen's books, and Maria P. Robbins's books are the only ones worth owning -- and they're priceless. The recipes are clearly written, and unfailingly delicious - and each describes why it is so special. If you love to bake or preserve, don't miss this one!
