5.0 out of 5 stars Great cookbook!, March 1, 2009

By	D. Weber (Palo Alto, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am really enjoying this cookbook. So far, everything that I have made is really delicious. The recipes are a little nicer than basic cooking, but simple to make and straightforward. I highly recommend this cookbook.
