Nominated for the prestigious Tabasco award...this book offers fun and easy recipes which have been hits everywhere I have taken them!!! The professional photographs of the area were a nice addition - and I especially loved the pictures of the Wyeth and duPont homes - The sidebars are entertaining and read like a travel guide. You will love this book! I also enjoy supporting a non-profit dedicated to raising funds to promote literacy.

Compiled from recipes donated by The Junior League of Wilmington, Dancing On The Table: Easily Elegant Recipes To Keep The Joy In Entertaining is more than a carefully selected recipe compilation suitable for parties and memorable gatherings; it is also the first official cookbook of the state of Delaware. A medley of color photographs intersperse this spiral-bound compilation and its classy suggestions such as Ginger and Honey Pork Tenderloin; Szechuan Noodle Salad; Punkin Chunkin' Cinnamon Meringues, and more. A superb addition to any kitchen cookbook collection Dancing On The Table is enhanced for the dedicated family chef with a page suitable for do-it-yourself notations added to the end various sections.

The recipes were original and not too hard to pull together. I especially loved those that featured regional cuisines, like mushrooms (Kennett Square Pa) and seafood from the Delaware and Maryland shore. It makes a wonderful gift - I have given it to hostesses, teachers and family members. Those that most appreciate it are those friends who have moved out of town, because, of the cooperation of the tourism offices from Delaware and historic Southern Pennsylvania the pictures and stories of the local attractions are like taking a mini-trip back home.
