Not worth it,
By "annie1962" (South Portland, ME) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Simply Grande Gardening Cookbook (Paperback)
These recipes aren't useful, and some are downright silly and pretentious. This is the kind of cookbook you get as a gift and then never use. The author doesn't come across as very likeable.

Good marketing, bad book,

This review is from: The Simply Grande Gardening Cookbook (Paperback)
The "rave" reviews here sound like industry blurbs, and there isn't anything really new worth your money. My mom gave it to me, and I'm going to keep it only to recycle as a "duty" gift this Christmas. And in case no one else has pointed it out, "simply grande" is an oxymoron.
