I'm taking this on as the next cookbook for my blog. Anyone have it? Cooked from it? Drooled over it? |

Not yet. I have it on order at my library but it looks like I won't get it until mid-December. ![]() Nancy |

I can't tell you how many times recently I have seen people use the term "peaked my interest" or even worse "peeked my interest." Kate, don't have the book but there is a very active thread on eGullet on this book. There have been several recipe reviews on the thread, with photos! It looks like a good book, although I am still sticking to my resolution of no new cookbooks. |

I shall consider myself blessed but am sure I have contributed to the embarrassing spelling errors club. Now I have to go check out that mustard tart recipe... sounds intriguing. Mary |

Everyone has the occasional spelling error, its the ones people make over and over that make you feel like your loosing your mind. On a related note, when empire waistlines became the big thing in wedding dresses a few years ago, I started seeing bridal mags actually call it the "ompeer" waistline. As in "These Titanic-inspired gowns feature cap sleeves and ompeer waistlines." The local sign peeve is "bokay". It's just all over the place here. I used to work for FTD, taking calls in their peak season, and I would have callers asking about "the cup-of-cheer banquet". I blame those signs. The poor dears just didn't recognize "bouquet" when they saw it. |

Guess that is one of the pluses of living in a non-English speaking country. In high school I worked at a place called The Burger Boy and we sold "piping hot pastrami sandwiches". A customer ordered one but said, "I don't want none of that piping hot stuff on it though". Mary |

That might be worth the price of the book. My husband would go nuts over that. Mary |
