So glad you like it and I have faith that you will conqueror your fear of pies, cake, and cookies! And I had terrific partners on this book – so glad you appreciate them.

It just arrived on Saturday and I have it out on my kitchen counter and I’ve been experimenting. It’s got everything – breads, appetizers, main courses and of course, an amazing array of desserts. Pies, cakes, gateaux, cookies – I am a little intimidated to try them since these are pretty exotic confections. Will write more after I see how I do… What’s surprising is I’ve been reading it for pleasure which is unusual for a cookbook. The author’s voice is very strong and you feel as if she’s talking you through it. Also, there are tons of pictures and the book is beautiful and dense It’s very well written with lively anecdotes and personal stories but mostly, it’s the recipes which are very straightforward and clear. And the stuff came out wonderfully. I am pretty utilitarian when it comes to cookbooks – I look up what I want to make and follow the instructions. But this book is a lot of fun and will be a steady companion going forward, along with some of my other favorites. Congratulations to the author and her extensive creative partners. It looks like you guys had fun – and it shows.
