I had such a love hate roller coaster with this book! There were parts that were so long and drawn out that it was obvious that this woman wrote stories for a living. I liked parts of it though. I even laughed out loud once or twice. I was mad that she included recipes INSTEAD of pictures. What the heck?!? If I wanted recipes- I'd have grabbed a cookbook. And pictures, IMO, would have added so much dimension. I'm really on the fence with this one.
