Customer Reviews

What a lovely book~

I serendipitously came across this book and immediately fell in love with the charmingly hand-detailed recipes and little illustrations. It has a great variety of dessert recipes, all of which sound scrumptious and yet look simple to make - I can't wait to try them out!

you dont have to read it...

you can just marvel at the artworks and the really pleasant colors and that should pick you up from every gloom you have in your life..susan's books have a really nice way of getting a good message across..that no matter how insane the world gets with advances in technology, we will always have a place in our hearts for the simple things in life..keeping in touch through old fashioned letters, preserving family history through scrapbooks and appreciating home made food cooked with love.

A Perfect Gift!

In response to ybronw from Canada...Perhaps the duplication of receipes and or illustrations in this book were for the simple reason that it is a KEEPSAKE book..in my opinion , the perfect small gift for that special person that you want to remember for a special occasion. Perhaps, it will introduce the receiver to the incredible talent and sensitivity of the author/illustrator! I enjoy reading the KEEPSAKE books over and over when I only have a few moments to relax and renew my soul with Ms. Branches gentle creativity. When I have more time I pick up her fullsized books for a bigger "taste of peacefulness and tranquility". These are not just cookbooks but reminders of a slower richer way of life.

AWESOME GIFT IDEA

As mentioned before in other reviews, this book has downsized recipes and illustrations from Susan Branch's previous books. However, this is a great way to share the joy I have received by purchasing this book for others.

Another treasure from the Heart of the Home series

This little book is a jewel box of luscious dessert recipes. Like all her books, Susan Branch has illustrated this volume with her impossibly delicate watercolors and spiced it with her delicious wit and charm. This book also contains the winner of her recipe contest. It's very easy to see why Susan inspires such passion from her followers!
