I miss Lynne on her podcast :(

At first I was totally in love with this book but now I think it's only ok. I've never really come across a recipe inside that was screaming to be made. I have enjoyed their little tips and tricks, despite the fact that many seem to be geared toward the novice cook.

I had a terrible time deciding what to try first out of this book. Every recipe was perfectly balanced to be approachable while still appealingly fresh and delicious-sounding. The stories and references to other books broke up the recipes into easily readable chunks. Very much my style.

MY EYES, MY EYES!

Why include 7 different fonts, two different font colors, and 7 different font sizes on the same page! This book has major style issues.

How are the recipes, you ask? I will never know - I am too affected by nausea to judge objectively.

Approach with caution if intending to read.
