Great cookbook for newlyweds October 6, 2008 I gave this cookbook along with the BH&G cookbook for brides to my new daughter-in-law. She loves them both. She and my son have used this one to cook together and have enjoyed it tremendously. I so glad someone published something like this that is easy to use, has good recipes, and explains how to cook.
The perfect engagement or shower gift! December 5, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Newlyweds who cook together enjoy such terrific bonding and a sharing of love -- so this is the perfect gift for bridal showers, co-ed bridal showers, and as an add-on gift when you're giving them a gift card off their bridal registry. One of the best parts about this cookbook is that it includes many healthy options...which is great news for newlyweds who worry about gaining weight from all of those indulgent celebrations and the pizza deliveries that might happen in the first few months of marriage when many couples gain an average of 10 pounds. Not with this book! I'm thrilled to recommend it to my brides and grooms, as well as to you. This is a gem!

This is a really cute book. It would make a great gift for a wedding shower. The pictures are fun and the chapters are very informative. I will be buying more as gifts!
Delicious all the way through June 26, 2006 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
I have had success with the recipes I've tried from this book, so it already wins a thumbs up. But it's the writing that I really have to rave about--in fact, I found myself abandoning whatever novels I was reading at the time and curling up in bed with this book to read instead! It is such a wonderful conversation from someone else who is new to marriage, and her charts, tidbits, and cheese play are amusing and helpful. My husband has taken her suggestions on salt and made them law in our house.
On a practical level, this book is well put together. It does not overwhelm you with recipes but instead gives you one wonderful new meal to try each month, plus some other must-have recipes, all with the goal of getting you to sit across the table from your spouse. I also liked the book because the author is young, busy, and crammed into a city-style apartment with all its limitations. It addressed many real-life challenges I face in my own life and kitchen, making it more relevant than Betty Crocker.
Everyone we love who gets married this summer is getting this book as a gift from us.
