I really enjoy reading cookbooks. Normally I base a review
of a cookbook on how many recipes I would like to make or make and they taste
awesome. This book is based on two ladies who start a Third Thursday potluck
cooking group with people from all walks of life. Having participating in a monthly
cooking group at random times through my life, I found this endearing. Each
month has a different theme and some musings at the beginning of that month’s
recipes.
This being said, some of the recipes are intimidating for a
stay-at-home mom cook of small children. However, there are quite a few recipes
I would like to try, especially those that involve using items from home-grown
gardens. I love the idea of everything is potluck style and fits with different
times of the year, since I find myself often cooking based on moods and
feelings of different times of the year.
Another thing I love with cookbooks is if each recipe
includes a picture. Not every recipe includes a picture with it, which doesn’t
totally matter, just helps please the palette of a cookbook. Since I don’t use
alcohol, several of the recipes I will probably never make, but overall, the
theme and endearment of this cookbook makes it worth taking a look at.
