around my french table

got this cookbook for xmas, and it's living up to all of the glowing reviews i've read. the writing style is warm and conversational, and the recipees have just enough specifics, plus suggestions for improvisation, and make-ahead and storage tips, which i find very helpful. some of them are takes on things that i already make, but with small twists. so far, i've made beef daube (it's great - i've eaten it for three meals in a row now) and back of the card cheese and olive bread (also excellent). highly recommended as cookbooks ago.
