5.0 out of 5 stars This Cookbook of the Year Makes Holiday Gift Giving Easy & Breakfast Delicious, October 18, 2006

By	M. Domb - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this book! I found the recipes fantastic, easy to use, inspirational and requiring a variety of widely available ingredients in combinations that result in incredible and delicious dishes. I was motivated to use the recipes, and felt completely competent doing so! I am eternally grateful that Fox's definition of morning food includes black bean chili, blintzes, quesadillas and coffee cake! I'm not a morning person, but I love Morning Food. Fox's directions are easy to follow and her comments very funny. What a find! It will be a staple of my holiday gift giving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breakfast a la Margaret Fox's way is now my favorite meal!, January 4, 2007

By	Suetoo (Tampa, FL) - See all my reviews

Margaret's very personal cookbook is a joy to read, not just to cook from. For a newly-minted breakfast lover (diabetes convinced me of the need for... and joys of breakfast) finding all these unique recipes has expanded my ideas of what breakfast can be. So far I've fallen in love with the Sunday pancake, Sausage stuffed baked apples, and Passed-its-prime fruit. And I've only had this cookbook since Christmas! Margaret, I'm in love with your stories, your wit, and the absolutely wonderful foods you've brought into my life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Margaret Fox is back with a great new cook book, October 28, 2006

By	Edythe I. Goodwin (Los Angeles, CA.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am so pleased with Margaret Fox's new edition of her Morning Food book. I have used that book over many years and it is the source of my favorite dessert, Buttermilk Cinnamon Coffee Cake, a guaranteed hit with company. This is included in the new edition as well a wealth of new recipes. The book is delightful, with Margaret's comments on each page. The book is full of colors which enhance the enticing recipes. I can't wait to start cooking.
