Good Day for a Picnic: Simple Food That Travels Well 4 reviews Jeremy Jackson
William Morrow Cookbooks, 2005
another lovely, lovely book from Jeremy Jackson
+ Fun Read, Great Recipes + Sure to provide new interest.
This book inspired my husband and I to have a picnic on Mother's Day - tablecloth on the picnic table underneath the oak tree, portable radio playing tinny-sounding oldies on the AM dial. What a perfect brunch. We started with Jackson's "Champagne Punch #5" and later had the delicate and ...

The menus were biased towards carbs, which I guess is to be expected.
I'm not sure if I would have the flair and panache to pull off ...

Easy Summer Food: Simple Recipes For Sunny Days 2 reviews Julz Beresford, Maxine Clark, ...
Ryland Peters & Small, 2005
"Easy" recipes expand palate and simplify hard-to-make dishes
That the title has the word "easy" in it is certainly a misnomer. However, that fails to stop my love for this cookbook. Every recipe I've tried has been excellent, and once you get past the unknown words ("pappa al pomodoro," "bagna cauda," "aioli," "bocconcini," to name a few) you'll find you ...
