Amazon.com: Should the Cook be Laughing?: J. R. Ray: Books

Editorial Reviews

About the Author
J.R. Ray developed an interest in food at an early age. He is a published short story writer, currently working on various writing projects that have nothing to do with cooking. He would love to have a wife that would stay at home and cook those more difficult recipes from other cookbooks. Then again, maybe not.

5.0 out of 5 stars FUN and TASTY...GREAT for FOOD and DRINK!!!, October 14, 2000

By	"bevf" (Ashburn, VA USA) - See all my reviews

Love it love it love it!!!! Had a lot of fun just looking through it...even more fun trying the recipes! Especially LOVED "ms. brill's cranlemon bombshell" and "bev's miraculous alcohol tea"...don't remember much of what happened after several refills, though! ; )

You have to try this cookbook...it's unlike any others you would have ever seen or used...and I don't even like to cook! Now THAT is saying something!

5.0 out of 5 stars PERFECT GIFT ITEM, November 19, 2000

By	Tricia Larmer (Dallas, Tx) - See all my reviews

You just have to buy this book for yourself and for gifts! I have given this book to several friends and relatives that love to collect different and unusual, yet functional, cookbooks and this one TAKES THE CAKE! I heard it has been entered into several contests! No doubt. Since I personally don't spend alot of time cooking, I really appreciate the quick recipes which are so funny and the text is extremely original. I love the graphics! If anyone likes unique cookbooks with a sense of humor, this is the one to buy! I was browsing through Cooking Light magazine when I ran across the ad and I bought several on a whim and have since ordered another 10 for perfect stocking stuffers! Thanks to the clever author for making my time in the kitchen so much more FUN! Any chance for a second ...Should the Cook be Laughing, Too?

5.0 out of 5 stars Cooking Can Be Fun!, November 19, 2000

By	Kristen (Dallas,TX) - See all my reviews

What a treat. Good recepies that are EASY and fun to make. Regular, everyday ingredients you can actually find. This is a great cookbook to have a cooking party with. Invite your friends over and laugh all the way through dinner. I recommend "cinnamon rip aparts" and "chicken and rice thing". Lots of handy tips in the back too. I am looking forward to more from this author!
