"The sure-fire recipe to impressing the man you've been eyeing. And trust me -- you'll be the one enjoying dessert." -- Vibe Vixen

Product Description

In Life, Get ' Em Girls Always Go After What They Want...

You know a Get 'Em Girl when you see one. She's got it together: great job, nice friends, and plenty of style. But when it comes to love, not all Get 'Em Girls have it figured out.

While some may think it's a cliché, maybe the way to a lover's heart is still through his stomach. But who has time to be chained to a stove? Just like having an extra job skill can help you get hired, someone willing to invest a little time and energy into a relationship definitely stands out in a crowded dating field.

The Get 'Em Girls' Guide to the Power of Cuisine features over 120 easy and delicious recipes that reflect the authors' southern-girl-in-the-big-city upbringings and will complement every stage of a growing relationship:

  • "Grown 'n' Sexy" desserts meant for sharing
  • The first "Morning After" Breakfast
  • The "Bring Him Back" Chicken Soup when he's sick
  • "Meet the Parents" Carrot Cake and much more!

Whether planning an intimate dinner for two or a down-home feast reminiscent of Mama's Sunday dinner, The Get 'Em Girls' Guide to the Power of Cuisine is filled with helpful tips, from stocking the pantry, to selecting wine, and even dating advice!

Cooking for a lover can be more meaningful (and cheaper) than dining out. But this is about more than just the food: it's about women investing in themselves and in their relationships. For all the women who aren't afraid to go after what they want, The Get 'Em Girls' Guide to the Power of Cuisine is a must-have in their kitchens!

4.0 out of 5 stars More than a cookbook..., January 7, 2009
You can recognize the Get'em Girl when you see her:
* She stands out from the crowd always being dressed to impress
* She has a power position in a great company
* She loves her circle of sista friends
However, it is one problem - the Get'em Girl could use some help in the kitchen. Since she spends so much time working her magic being tied down to the kitchen is not her thing. But in order to up her points on the dating scoreboard she has to put in some work on learning how to put together a meal that will wow him.

This is more than a cookbook, it is a truly a guide to success in the kitchen that will upgrade your love life. With over 120 simple but scrumptious recipes, you will be able to maneuver around the kitchen like a goddess. This cookbook reads more like a comedy novel as the humorous chapter titles (It's Not His Mama's...But It Comes Close; Grown `n' Sexy; and The Morning After) add flavor and pizzazz. The recipes are cleverly arranged according to potential date nights: simple dinner for two, appetizers for that Super Bowl party or quick dessert to add to those long love-making nights. There are ideas for keeping your pantry stocked, how to pick the right wine, why cook for a man, what gadgets you may want to invest in and what to do once you have him hooked. If you are a sister wanting a quick 411 on dishes to win a man's heart, this is exactly what you need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Love At First Bite, April 25, 2009
By The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
I'm sure at some point in our lives we know a get `em girl. A get `em girl is a woman who is ambitious, and who takes charge of her life; from the boardroom to the bedroom, however she doesn't know how to cook to get a man. And whether you believe it or not the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and this cookbook of 120 delicious recipes will keep him coming back for more.


THE GET"EM GIRLS" GUIDE TO THE POWER OF CUISINE entices its reader with recipes in various cuisines, such as Caribbean, Asian, Soul, and Spanish. The recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are readily available in any supermarket. I made the Macaroni and Cheese and it was simply delicious. There are ideas for picking the right wine, stocking the pantry, setting the table, which cooking gadgets to invest in and what to do once you've reeled him in.

THE GET `EM GIRLS' GUIDE TO THE POWER OF CUISINE is not your average cookbook. It's a fun guide to dating and building a relationship from the "Grown and Sexy" recipes to the "Meet the Parents" recipes.

I am a collector of cookbooks and THE GET `EM GIRLS' TO THE POWER OF CUISINE definitely has earned a spot on my shelf.

4.0 out of 5 stars Get 'em girls'!, April 19, 2009
I got just what I thought I would when I decided to purchase this book. It was funny, informative and just plain down home. I congratulate the three authors of this book they really thought out what they felt a woman who's single and still looking should know to get and keep her man. I liked the wine pairing with specific foods and the simplicity of the recipes. I would order this book again especially since I didn't have to pay the full price, but if I had it would have been well worth every penny.
