Do you know what I am loving? The Martha Stewart Living Christmas Cookbook! I checked it out at the library, and found myself marking recipe after recipe to copy. At that point I went and found myself a $3 copy at Amazon.
The photography is beautiful, the menus make me want to throw a party (Swedish Christmas Eve, anyone?), and I'm happily baking my way through the cookie section.
There's a whole chapter on truffles . . .
The photography in Martha Stewart's book couldn't possibly be better than the photography on your blog! Thanks again to Giles for sharing his talent!
ReplyDeleteI must check this one out as well. Everytime I check out a Martha cookbook from the library, I end up buying it on Amazon as well! The hors d'heouvres one is awesome...I'm a savory kind of girl.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe chocolate charms sound heavenly. I must look for the book.

ReplyDeleteWeird...I was just washing all my cookie cutters this morning and decided to look through the blogs as I took a break. What do I see but the very same star cookie-cutter that is in my collection! We've had this star one along with a spade, diamond, club, heart, flower, and leaf in the family for over 30 years or so. Out of curiosity, where did you get yours?
ReplyDeleteMartha has always been an inspiration to me as well. Thanks for sharing! Are you going to share any Xmas gifts in the works?
