Now, you know I love food and books-what you don't know is-is that i love cooking rather than baking because...oh...i dunno...maybe because I am TERRIBLE at baking. Yes, it's true-I alway mess it up, but when I got a look at this book, it really made me feel different about baking-I love it now, and not just for pastries and cakes (which is hard to bake from scratch, I am perfecting it, but Duncan Hines will just have to do...) Check it out, purchase it if you like but never give up on baking-it really is not that hard. The author is Paula Shoyer-a real natural at the craft. Buy it here.
 
They are so awsome--every recipe is designed to help you get out of the kitchen as fast as possible. They are authoured by the lovely and wonderful Jamie Geller. You can purchase the books here. The twin package is also available.
