Summary: The Good Cook's Book of Days
Comment: I received this book recently as a gift from a fine cook I have had the pleasure of working with on several occasions. I had always wanted a place to write down food related experiences, not necessarily recipes (I have other journals for those) but points in time that deserve to be recorded. I have a memory of sharing an ambrosial banana four ways in the Coba archealogical site in the Yucatan. Another of my son and husband catching tree frogs outside a nice Sonoma Valley restaurant for an elderly friend to put in her pond. Or the night this same woman flirted audaciously with a waiter in another restaurant. Or of buying a sack of pristine Seattle foodstuffs from Pike Place Market and tucking into them with utter joy along the Oregon Coast. Where can you write about these things? In Michele Anna Jordan's book, of course.

Summary: best cookbook ever
Comment: I first found this cookbook in a bookstore while browsing for a gift. It was mostly blank, and if I had read the entire title, I would have expected this - it's a food journal, which means you put all the recipes in it. What a wonderful place to put special family recipes, favorite finds, and fabulous dishes. No more searching through an assortment of books from a shelf or trying to flip through a recipe box.I have taken all of my best recipes and put them in this book.
It is a beautifully done book. It's a red cloth hardcover with lots of extras like notes on wines,tables of equivalents, places to note guest preferences/allergies, so that you know what to cook when someone comes over. There are so many little extras in this book, I am still discovering them.
I was so excited when I found this book that I bought two and gave one to a friend. I have used it so much since I can't imagine my kitchen without it. Recently, a friend came over and so admired the book that I ordered one from Amazon.com for her. They are hard to find now, but worth the search!

Summary: Not a Cookbook
Comment: I bought this book as a present for my mom. I was under the assumption it was some form of cookbook. It was anything but. There is one recipe in this book. The rest of it is pictures of flowers and other decorations. My mom's spiral notebook serves the same function. Why was this listed as a cookbook?
