Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I was going to wait to write my review on this diet until I'd been on it for a couple of weeks, but a reviewer made an interesting observation, pointing out that all of the current 5 star reviews seem fake (it's the only non-five star review so far), and now I'm wondering if Rodale employees really have...

The Ultimate Little Martini Book (Ultimate Little Drinks Book) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Whether you just want a crisp cool drink to sip while on your deck, or are planning a party with tons of martini glasses to be filled, it's a great "go-to" book. We, personally, like to plan a gathering where we serve a "signature drink" when it's BYOB for a big bash and the focus is on food, as everyone...
Zero Proof Cocktails: Alcohol-Free Beverages for Every Occasion Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This pretty little recipe book is meant for two main audiences: those who don't like the taste of alcohol (some of us are quite sensitive to it), and those who can't drink it (for example, those whose religions forbid it). This way, those who find themselves longing for the intricate and interesting...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I'm not a foodie, but I like to cook. I've also found its one of the greatest ways to pull together people from diverse backgrounds--nothing like closeting a group of unrelated people in a cozy kitchen, pulling out some good food and drink, and chatting. Beats the heck out of the cardboard pizza most...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Years ago Dara wrote a food column with step-by-step instructions for learning the concept of "dry". Several friends and I had a blast (aided by 6 bottles of wine and as many beers) as we compared wines, beers, cheeses, fruits and crackers to get an in-depth understanding of dry.
