my husband and i received this book as a wedding gift and it was one of the best gifts we got! all the receipes are really easy but are so yummy (and it makes just enough for two). there's even a section in the back called "dinners in a dash" where you can make a great meal for two really quickly. we really liked the filet with green peppercorns, carrot cake, pancakes, and chinese chicken salad. i use this cookbook at least once a week. i even bought it for my friends as wedding presents!

We got this as a wedding gift and have been using it for the past few months. The recipes are easy to follow and the photographs are scrumptious. Several dishes -- the wild rice pilaf, orzo with pine nuts, and bread pudding -- have become staples in our new home. Sure, the stories are a bit saccherine, but that is exactly the kind of feeling new marriage evokes in most couples.
This won't be, as the ad blurb states, the only cook book you'll ever need. But it's a notch above the rest.

I bought this book for myself, although I've been married going on 18 years. I'm typically a microwave-it-and-go girl, but the recipes looked like they could produce elegant meals with simple ingredients. And they do! We hosted a dinner party for 12 and served the pork tenderloin recipe with mango and mint salsa with blackberry syrup and got raves! This is my new favorite cookbook. I'm buying it for all new brides I know!

This is an amazing cookbook. My husband and I recieved this as a wedding gift and have since bought it for other couples as wedding gifts. Eerything I have made from it has been amazing. I've since put so much trust in it that even if it doesn't sound that good i'll try it and it always amazes me. Our favorite is the sweet and sour brisket, and the mushroom risotto
