2.0 out of 5 stars not what I expected, September 12, 2000

By	Seth A. Hager (Port Townsend, Wa. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Celebrate Spring is full of many delicious looking recipes. I was hoping for cookbook that makes use of seasonal foods and produce, but this book is more a list of spring themed party ideas (for St. Patrick's Day, Easter, various afternoon teas) each with a menu, suggestions for decorations, party favors, homemade gifts and crafts. While there are some recipes that use springtime produce like asparagus, peas, and rhubarb there are also recipes which call for fresh apricots, peaches, blueberries, raspberries, basil and other summer produce. Also, the suggestions about making spice garlands, drying herbs and the use of dried lavender seemed oddly out of place in a book about springtime. It's a nice enough book, but it's not what I was looking for

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful collection of recipes and other neat stuff, April 29, 2000

By	Amanda Tinsley (Roscoe, IL United States) - See all my reviews

This book is the second best book in the series, just because I'm biased and like autumn better. The book had cute idea's for mother's day, special's for easter, a whole dinner for St. Pat's etc etc. Each chapter also came with helpfull gooseberry hints at the end. Besides with Gooseberry recipes who can go wrong?
