Awesome little cookbook!!!!

This is an adorable little cookbook! Great for collectors and as a family pass-down item! We'll be getting much use out of it for many years.

Truly a Great Little Pumpkin-Shaped Cookbook

This is the antithesis of the coffee-table book: paperback, pocket-sized, pumpkin-shaped, photo-less (in fact, entirely pictureless), and page after page of about 50 fantastic recipes! These are not just simple desserts (though there are several exotic ones), but spicy gourmet main dishes from around the world. I haven't seen a single one that I do not want to try. The only mark against is the lack of pictures, so you may have to use your imagination a little, though it will not impact your ability to make any of the dishes. That it is so small, unassuming, and pumpkin-shaped attests to the pure practicality and quality of the contents. If your taste tends toward the exotic, you can't go wrong with this book.
