Customer Reviews

Full of great recipes!

I purchased this book based on the good reviews. When I received it I started marking with sticky notes the pages that had recipes I wanted to try. About half way through I realized there were so many, that I would probably fill the second half of the book with sticky notes too! Almost every recipe in here seems to be a winner just based upon the ingredients alone. Also, the directions do not appear complicated. I can't wait to cook my way through this cookbook!

A Five Star Cookbook

I'm a big fan of Junior League cookbooks to begin with, so I was sure I would like this one. Little did I know that I would LOVE it. Most of the recipies are easy and inexpensive. This has become one of the most frequently used cookbooks in my collection and we have yet to be disappointed. Great gift, too. I've given it to several friends and they have all raved about how wonderful it is.

Yummy!

This has become my "staple" cookbook because everything I've made is not only easy & elegant in its presentation, but Yummy! I recommend it to everyone who likes to have a book with the things they love, but with a twist, and also try something new. We tried the East Texas Breakfast Cake for Christmas morning and it's now going to be our annual tradition- it was perfect to make the night before and cook in the morning. You'll love it for yourself and everyone else you give it to.

Fantastic Cookbook!!!
