1.0 out of 5 stars Derby Recipes NOT Derby Entertaining, March 6, 2004

By	Dana Murphy (Guerneville, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a compilation of Kentucky favorite recipes with a heavy hand on cream cheese and pork products. There are virtually no suggestions for Derby parties or ideas or suggestions other than a one paragraph introduction before the onslaught of recipes.

There must be better "Entertaining" books out there for the Derby party crowd, but this isn't one of them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple recipes & ingredients for big impact in no time!, May 8, 2000

By A Customer

This is a great reference book for those who like to entertain, have limited preparation time and moderate cooking expertise but are looking for a dish that is different and will make a positive impression on their guests. Many one dish and prepare ahead recipes from appetizers to main courses, side dishes, drinks and desert. Consider this book if you are throwing the party or bringing a dish to a friend's house. You won't be disappointed. I am really pleased I purchased it! Now I am buying them for gifts - its a great size and has an attactive cover suitable for gift giving.
