Best cookbook ever June 12, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
How to Eat Supper is one of the most well written cookbooks ever. You can hear Lynn's voice throughout the book and the recipes are incredibly simple to make. I read this cover to cover in no time and have successfully made some of the recipes. I will treasure this book for a lifetime-it is one of the best cookbooks anyone will ever own. This is an especially great book for people who want to start cooking or for those who do already but need good direction. I have learned so much through her book and appreciate this cookbook so much! It was well worth the money!

great cookbook = good food for dinner May 31, 2008 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
An enjoyable read. lots of good pictures, excellent instructions, advice on which brands of canned products to buy and why. The advice on which pans to buy and use is invaluable- now I know why previous meals have not turned out properly. I am using this cookbook at least twice a week.
A FUN REAO FOR COOKING May 28, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The book not only for cooking but a good read-about every aspect of cooking and entertaining.I couldn't put it down!A great gift!
Useful & fun - just like their radio program May 20, 2008 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
As a fan of The Splendid Table weekly radio program, I was very curious about how the same style of information would be made into written form, so ordered this book. I really like that the recipes focus on dinner, or lunch, menus, instead of just trying to cover every type of recipe (for that type of cookbook, I recommend Bittman's How To Cook Everything - fabulous in it's own way). And most of the recipes look full of flavors, AND can be made ahead of time and served reheated, or at room temperature (a real boon for families!). We actually made the delicious Warm Bean with Rosemary dish, and the Oven Roasted Onion dishes for our 3 year olds birthday party, and they were both great hits w/ kids and adults alike! And though not encyclopedic, all of the recipes look very tasty, and not difficult to make. And one last reason I like this book - the recipes are typed out in a larger, very clear type face, which makes it so much easier to read when you're busy in the kitchen reading the recipe while cooking it. Bravo Ms. Kasper and Ms. Swift!
