I really love this book. The illustrations and quirky stories alone sold me. The fact the recipes work is a total bonus (and believe me, I've never written a sentence like that before! I'm usually all about the food.) Thanks for the endorsement of my choice. I really love this book. The illustrations and quirky stories alone sold me.

Rose Murray's recipes are bullet-proof and soooo good. There are lots of Canadian cookbooks but this is one of my favourites. Rose Murray’s recipes are bullet-proof and soooo good.

Unfortunately, I missed a couple of titles due to the impending office upheaval. Oh well, they won't go bad. I just let my bookcase guide me.

I have two of the authors' prior books also, but that one is my favorite by far. I've got to get my hands on Kitchen Scraps. I haven't seen it in the bookstores around me, but perhaps I'm just not looking hard enough. I use The Flavor Bible all the time.
