Review:This was fun, mostly because of all the photographs of Frances Mayes' now famous and lovely Tuscan home. The recipe collection is not extensive, but it is exactly what you need for inspiration to create the ambiance, taste and feeling of the fresh, life-affirming cuisine of Tuscany at home. Read more

Review:Unfortunately, I inadvertently purchased an "uncorrected" proof of the book. I won't do that again as it was annoying to read... not properly edited and contained many repetitions and spelling errors. I expected more recipes... the title and premise of the book misrepresents what is clearly the author's enhanced personal journey of genealogical pursuit. Having done a similar search of my own ancestry, I found Twitty's journey interesting, but not 21 chapters worth. Read more

Review:This is a cookbook from Vivian Howard. She left the chef life in the east to return to her North Carolina life where she is rediscovering staple southern foods and running a few restaurants and raising twins with her husband. She is full of energy! Read more

Review:Every experience I've ever had with Ms. Angelou's work has proven to be captivating, entertaining and above all heart-warming.

Again, I couldn't put this book down until I'd read it from cover to cover. The recipies not only are easy to f... Read more

Review:I ordered this book diet for a small planet spiral bound, though what I received was one in paper back not spiral bound.
I have the paper back one already . They didn't have what I ordered, what I wanted in stock.
It was a problem to return and complicated to deal with in the end I gave up and kept the book. Burr
In short I ordered this book and did not get what was advertised what I wanted. Read more
