🌲Dear Readers,
We’ve been searching high and low for some other genre author cookbooks and finally came up with a list… a short list, but at least we found some more.
So, we thought you might want to check out these cookbooks. They’re not just by fancy Cordon Blue chefs, but instead from authors. And yes, even one of our *authors. These are fun and well worth trying out the recipes. And the tales, vignettes, and essays are entertaining to say the least. So grab your coffee and order your copy today. And never hesitate to ask your library to carry these cookbooks too… cause that’s the thing they love to do!!
