Hi Gina, I know that I am not the smartest knife in the drawer, but I had a really hard time trying to order more then one of Taste This.
I need four books and it only lets me order one at a time. So I gave up. I would love to have four more ( mI already have one for myself) for my friends. Let me know the easiest way to go about this. Thank you, Justy

I love the Red Grapes & Red Onions and since I love goat cheese, I’ve discovered it is so tasty slathered on a thick slice of toasted rustic bread and topped with the grapes and onions. We’re actually trying the Greek Chicken Salad tonight but am sure that we’ll love it since everything from Gina’s cookbook is great so far!

This book sounds fantastic and knowing the writer’s background confirms that this stuff is QUALITY! I also love to cook and entertain and agree that the apps with wine or cocktails is probably the most fun part of the evening. Agree with you all that these recipes sound so simple yet totally delicious. What’s not to love, right? Thanks for the link so now I can get one myself! Great post, Stacy. And Congrats to Gina on the book

oh wow, I’m totally hungry. Sitting here with the NCAA on (why? no clue, well, remote is too far away to reach with 2 cats crowding the laptop on my lap) headed to Borders in the morning to snag a copy, I could use some cheezy slices of heaven!

I made the Finger Lickin’ Chicken. The name is right no the money and only 4 ingredients including the chicken. Can’t beat that. I am looking forward to trying all of the recipes. They’re super easy and everything looks delicious.

Dear LTV Mom- Thank you so much for having taken the time to try so many of the appetizers. I couldn’t agree with you more, great appetizers and the best wine you have to serve, set the tone for the night. After all, guests deserve to be treated like GUESTS. That said, we are busy and need time for ourselves. I find for a little extra mommy time I even have my little ones help out on the preparation so that someday soon, they can discover their own variations. I’d love to hear what is next on your list of things to try out. I am working on a whole new batch of pasta recipes that I hope to share with you someday soon!
