The Gourmet Slow Cooker: Volume II, Regional Comfort-Food Classics
Lynn Alley

Ten Speed Press, 2006

Inspiring!
Using the recipes in this book has inspired me to get back into cooking. We especially love the Posole recipe, which updates a traditional recipe with new touches. The New England Brown Bread recipe is so good that it beats my grandmother's Down East Yankee recipe... ...

Comfort Food: Rachael Ray Top 30 30-Minute Meals
Rachael Ray

Lake Isle Press, 2005

great little book
I really like this great little book. I have already tried out four of the recipes and they are simple and quite delicious. Rachael truly does deliver a 30 minute meal. The Shepherd's pie took a little longer, but was really worth it. I have since bought several other ...
  
  











  



  
The Apron Book: Making, Wearing, and Sharing a Bit of Cloth and Comfort
EllynAnne Geisel

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2006

When the student is ready
I had to make an apron in Home Ec class many (many) years ago. I didn't enjoy it at all. I didn't care for the fabric, didn't really get the hang of using a sewing machine, just felt it was a waste of time. Nobody in my family wore an apron, anyway, somehow they ...
  
  











  



  
Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog
John Grogan

William Morrow, 2005

Great Book - Enjoyable Reading
This book is just enjoyable reading and now waiting for the movie to come out at Christmas time. Oh, if all our lives could be this much fun. Marley certainly was a loved dog, probably never had a bad day. I just passed this book onto other people, especially good dog ...
  
  











  



  
Christmas with Paula Deen: Recipes and Stories from My Favorite Holiday
Paula Deen

Simon & Schuster, 2007

Good and Down to Earth
I love the Southern influence, and the stories, and the humor in this book. The recipes remind me of learning to cook beside my mother in a cramped and noisy kitchen. This brought back fond memories and several recipes that were very familiar from my upbringing but ...

Ate it up!
I can't ask for much more. Friendships, relationships between mothers and daughters, a bit of romance and drama, plus cooking? Gus, a fifty-year-old mother of two, has her own show, which is done in her house. She has had this show 12 years. However, she isn't like ...
  
  











  



  
The Comfort Table
Katie Lee Joel

Simon Spotlight Entertainment, 2008

I LOVE THIS COOKBOOK
I read about this cookbook in a Cosmo Magazine. It had a few recipes included in the article, all of which looked yummy. I told my sister about it and we found it on Amazon for a third of the price that it is in the store! We ordered 3 - one for all three sisters. ...
  
  











  



  
The Gentle Art of Domesticity: Stitching, Baking, Nature, Art & the Comforts of Home
Jane Brocket

Stewart, Tabori & Chang, 2008

Love this book!
This book is wonderful - it's a revelation! The idea of the title, 'The Gentle Art of Domesticity' sounded so boring. But I heard about it from a friend and so got onto the hold list at our library for the book. I LOVE IT! It is an amazing book filled with all sorts of ...

Tiny bookmarks are nice to share!
I love stained glass and so does the girl I gave this little book of bookmarks to. They are glossy with beautiful bright colors and are all prints of historic pieces by Louis Comfort Tiffany.
  
  











  



  
Angel Cats: Divine Messengers of Comfort
Allen Anderson, Linda Anderson

New World Library, 2004

A True Blessing
A friend gave me this book a week ago today. My wonderful cat (my companion of nearly 14 years), Trouble, died last week of kidney failure and my friend thought I could use a little comfort. I haven't read the entire book yet, but the last section on how animals say ...
  
  











  



  
Buckets of Money: How to Retire in Comfort and Safety
Raymond J. Lucia

Wiley, 2004

A good strategy
This book is a great book, especially if you don't have a plan already. Ray Lucia puts his thoughts together in an organized manner, and easy to understand. Too often, financial books get into industry terminology that just get people confused. This should give any ...
