Rita M. Harris |
| If you've been looking for a classic dish that you remember from childhood picnics and family reunions, this is the book for you! It covers everything from Chicken Pot Pie to homemade Kahlua using instant coffee and vodka. The only thing not to like is that most of the recipes are not quick to make, and you will definitely need to have your cholesterol checked after eating some of the entrees! | |
| Girl Food | Cathy Guisewite and Barbara Albright |
| So sue me, I've been on a cookbook jag here recently. This book gets counted off on several counts. First, there wasn't enough "Cathy" to really justify calling it "Cathy's cookbook". I was definitely expecting more humor. The other downer was that I didn't run across even one recipe that made me want to run out and try it. If you're a Cathy fan, skip it and find one of the strip collections instead. |
| Dealing With People You Can't Stand | Dr. Rick Brinkman and Dr. Rick Kirschner |
| I found this to be a very helpful book if you are confronted with a person that you can't stand, let alone understand. By breaking people down into several common personality types, the book helps you take a more objective look at what's going on. I also loved the many illustrative stories. My main complaint would be that not every difficult-to-deal with person fits into the stereotypes. But overall, a great read for the would-be diplomat. |
