Tribune: "Summertime Treats", by Sara Perry, is a lively and beautifully
photographed book designed for families, with recipes and crafts that
accentuate, warm weather living. Quick-to-make
dishes concentrate on picnic classics such as potato salad and deviled
eggs (which get dressed up with cocktail umbrellas), as well as ethnic
favorites, including orange mint tabbouleh and gazpacho-to-go. Corn on
the cob gets an update with a variety of flavored butters to serve alongside
it. We fell in love with the recipe for fresh strawberry shortcake with
summer cream (pictured on the book's corner). The crafts
are fun too. Vacation place mats are made from postcards and maps, and
a "one-for-the-Road" lunch box is designed to accommodate the restless-on-road-trips
crowd. Editorial

and anyone struck with Cupid's arrow will find plenty of inspiration in

the fun with simple nosegays, no-fuss Peanut Butter with Love Sandwiches,
and Pixie Postcards. Cupid's arrow will hit the bull's eye this holiday
with the enchanting ideas in Valentine Treats. Editorial Reviews

Countless books detail holiday projects for the dedicated crafter, but here's a title that encourages the whole family to get involved in Christmastime baking and decorating.
Helpful tips on cooking and crafting with kids make it easy to get started, and many of the craft projects require only minimal adult supervision. Whip up a whole host of ornaments, garlands, cards, and wrappings using such easy-to-use items as salt dough, aluminum foil, and bright magazine clippings. Delight little Santa's helpers with kid-friendly nibbles like chocolate crispy bears or smiley-face pancakes, and surprise grown-up guests with a Yule log cake or chocolate-peppermint swizzle sticks.
Full directions are given for all craft and food items, including enough recipes for a full Christmas dinner. One minor drawback, especially for children: most of the crafts are not pictured, so crafters may have difficulty visualizing the finished product. But there are enough color photos to give a general impression of the projects, making Christmastime Treats fun for everyone. --Amy Handy Editorial
