Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I've been subscribing to Martha Stewart's Reader's Digest-sized Everyday Food since she first started publishing it in 2003. I have every single issue I've ever received (although most of them are currently being used to hold up the end of a wall-mounted cabinet that is falling apart). So the new cookbook, Great Food Fast, which pulls 250 recipes from the pages of those magazines wouldn't necessarily be something I'd need to own. However, even though I've seen most of the recipes before and made more than a few of them, I find this cookbook really appealing. That's because they've done a really lovely job of making it easy to navigate and visually interesting. The pictures, which never get particularly big in the magazine, have been blown up, without any loss of quality, to fill the pages of this book and illustrate their accompanying recipes. Organized by season (as recipes from a mostly monthly magazine should be) this book makes it fairly easy to find quick dishes for dinner that you know will be fairly tasty and foolproof. Say what you will about Martha Stewart, her recipes are typically reliable. If you haven't been subscribing to the magazine all along like I have, then this is one you should take a peek at next time you're in the bookstore, as it's pretty nice.
