Are there more photos than the old edition?

[judydawn]

Hard to tell Michele as some are grouped together on one page in each new section in the old book.  The photos are definitely better in the new book though.  I would have liked less photos of soups and more of main meals and desserts though 

I've ordered 4 copies and they will be coming in a week or so.

Thanks Judy - don't know whether to get a copy or not? I love pictures 

[goldfish]

Sorry - simply can't resist - ordered mine too  . .

The new book certainly sounds nice. I might wait until a couple of recipes have been revued and decide if I need one then.

[mcmich]

I probably won't as none of the new recipes are anything I can't find here at the forum  

Excellent for new purchasers of TMX though.

[Amy :-)]

I agree with Mich I don't think I'll be ordering a new one either. I'm glad it was published though

Tenina mentioned on her facebook site that a couple of the new recipes are hers.  No credit given she said.

[Amy :-)]

Well that's just wrong

I like the new book, especially the photos and page layout.   Yesterday I sat down and compared the old recipes that I use,  8 in total.   They are the same. I like the calorie count on the recipes.   I did notice some of Tenina's.  When  I have time , I will test all the bread recipes, as written.  Then if there are any comments we will know how to help. Have a feeling that the 5 seed bread may need a little more yeast.

Chookie that is kind of you.

Does anyone have Curtis Stone's "What's For Dinner?" and if so what do you think of it?

[Katiej]

I do Mich.
I haven't had it long and haven't cooked anything from it as yet.  It looks nice though and I've tagged quite a few recipes to make.
Any particular recipe you want, I could email it to you?

I thought you were getting rid of all your cookbooks 

[mcmich]

Yes, Katie, am trying to reduce the load. Love Curtis and thought it might be a good buy?

Yep, way too many cookbooks. Will shelve this one.
