Title: Doesn't properly belong with the vegetarian cookbooks
Review: Unfortunately this book does not live up to the standard set by the original Vegetarian Epicure; the ingredients suggested are sometimes difficult or impossible to obtain without access to specialty food stores, and not inexpensive when they can be found. Prep times are lengthy and sometimes require what appears to be the use of every pot in the house; perhaps Ms. Thomas's target audience has become those familiar from her primary career as a film producer, who can pay someone else to do the washing up?While I commend Ms. Thomas's husband's desire to be accommodating to guests, presumably those accepting an invitation to dinner at the home of someone who has made a reputation by publishing cookbooks aimed at vegetarians would not be expecting to be served turkey?Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone would be a better -- and more accurately marketed -- investment.
