wow! all of these look fantastic! I especially like the Youvetsi and the carrot cake (since I’m not usually a fan of carrot cake….).

Your creme caramel reminds me of one of my first very expensive, very fine dining experiences. The service had been impeccable, the ambiance was perfect, the food diving. And then as I was eating the creme caramel I’d ordered for dessert, I was shocked to see there were flecks of dirt in it. I was *just* about to say something when I figured out it was vanilla. Humiliation averted!

What a great idea! I want to start a cookbook club.
I love this book and her other two (three?) as well. I didn’t notice the lack of instructions but I am a culinary school grad so I tend to read cookbooks for inspiration and new flavor combo ideas.

I checked out Kiros’ “Apples for Jam,” and found it similarly inspirational and evocative and all that good stuff, but a bit slight on the actual instruction. I suppose that’s par for the course from someone who organizes her cookbooks by colors instead of courses…

Also: Cookbook Club? Genius!

Wow! I’m glad you were amazed by the ribs. They were definitely not the best thing we’ve made on the BGE. The sauce was a good start, but I would have totally messed up the grilling if I didn’t have prior knowledge and a grill master to help me (i.e. instructions in the book were useless).

I’m with Tracy. I want to be part of your cookbook club. I enjoy cooking, but it would be so much more fun with a group of fellow eaters (most recipes make way too much for 2 people).

Everything looks divine – and the idea of a cookbook club is brilliant. I want to see if there’s one in my town!
