#Simple and Delicious Food! (2008-01-01) I ve made about eight or ten of the recipes in this cookbook, and they have all been easy to make and absolutely delicious!

#Can t stop cooking (2006-09-20) My husband brought this gem back for me after a recent ski vacation to the Kootneys. Seems like a raw deal, he got to ski and I get a cookbook. No way! This is the best cookbook ever! I cook a lot and have many cookbooks but I have never been so pleased with so many recipes. Nice to look at, easy to use and delicious meals in no time. My best buddies who love to ski and cook will all be getting this book for upcoming birthdays. The Chili Con Carne is to die for, not to mention the Torta Rustica. Bravo Shelley Adams.
