Title: Pretty as long as you don't eat it
Review: A friend recommended this to me and I fell in love with the quaint artwork. But when I buy a cookbook, I do so with the intent to cook, not to gift it to someone else. So I've been disappointed with the lukewarm results from a dozen of the recipes. Just this week I prepared the New Lane Peas and the Clam Fritters and was completely underwhelmed. Peas were a watery bland mess and the clam fritters were completely tasteless until I added additional seasonings. So if you want to give this book as a gift as other reviewers have done, go for it but please don't give it to someone who actually knows something about food. Susan's a much better artist than she is a chef.
