      The recipes have beautiful photos accompanying them, and the recipes look so good.

      The study does seem interesting and different.

      Thanks for stopping, Laurel.

      Good Taste has been popular in mailboxes.

      As I mentioned, the recipes look and seem to be very good. Lots of good recipes for Fall comfort foods.

      Thanks for stopping, readingdate.

    Hi Elizabeth,

    A couple of completely different books this week.

    I'm not sure that 'A Study In Scarlet..' is one for me, as I don't really like it when classics are re-written.

    I am not a very adventurous cook, however if 'Good Taste' has plenty of yummy looking images, then bring on you selection :)

    Enjoy your new reads,

    Yvonne

      I am not sure about A Study In Scarlet either. :) It does have a pretty cover.

      The recipes do look yummy.

      Thanks for stopping, Yvonne.

    I got a copy of Good Taste, too. I've read throug the entire book and loved her anecdotes about family and cooking. It's going to be difficult to choose which recipes to try first. The only recipe that didn't appeal to me was the tomato tart and my husband said, "Oh, I love a good tomato tart," so that means there's nothing that *somebody* in this house isn't interested in!
