Summary: For the woman who wants to entertain without the fuss
Comment: I class myself as a good cook when I follow a recipe and it turns out well. I love to entertain but have generally ended up in a sweat and not really enjoying the event itself. Then I discovered Nigella Lawson and Ina Garten.
Barefoot Contessa Parties is for the woman who wants to relax and enjoy the party when cooking for other people. She has a busy life and cooking is somewhat of a hobby.
Barefoot Contessa Parties and Nigella Lawson's How To Eat (plus a double oven) gave me more confidence to cook for others and experiment with my own ingredients to adapt recipes than any of your Joy of Cooking or famous chef books. My kitchen is clean and tidy when guests arrive (a big plus for me being a messy cook) and the food is great. I also had dinner at a friend's house some months ago when the most delicious lamb was served. I've long envied the way it was cooked to discover the recipe in Barefoot Contessa Parties!
On another note - there have been mixed reports about the beef tenderloin recipe. It worked for me. Perfectly. Yes, the oven smoked but the meat was superb and my guests were very complimentary. This will now be one of my staple dishes when entertaining.
Please try Nigella Lawson's How to Eat or any book by Nigella. She too is an advocate for keeping it simple and being with your guests. She's also famous for the quote "after all, it's only dinner"

Summary: Finally! A cookbook for the rest of us!
Comment: I love to cook and bake but I run screaming from complicated recipes. This cookbook contains simple recipes for really great-tasting food. It is uncomplicated and the adjoining photographs are simple and elegant. Never have I found a cookbook where page after page I have found recipes that I actually want to try.
I made the ceasar salad the first day I bought the book, the sour cream coffee cake the second. Both turned out fantastic! Tomorrow I shall conquer the delicious-looking rugelach.
The book is touted for parties but don't let that fool you. These are great recipes for simple family dinners as well as large parties. The book is also sprinkled with Ina Garten's advice and past experiences.
I thank Ina Garten for this wonderful new cookbook - but moreover, my husband thanks her!
