 Great recipes, but... October 5, 2008
I can't deny that the recipes are, for the most part, terrific. But, that said, I must comment on the loose-leaf binder format. Yes, it's convenient to lay it flat while in use, but the pages will not hold up very well unless you stick reinforcements on each and every page, both front and back. Just the thought of doing that is overwhelming...check out how many pages are in this cookbook, now multiply that number by six. WHEW! That's a truckload of reinforcements, ya' think? I know they put it out in a spiral-bound version, but I'm having trouble finding that. When I do, this edition will be turned over to my DD.
 Excellent Resource August 29, 2008
This book is filled with wonderful recipes and makes a Excellent resource for any kitchen.
Excellent March 19, 2008
For more than 44 years, my standby cookbook has been the Red Checkered Better Homes cookbook that I received as a new bride in 1963. I had put a cover on the outside to keep the binding from tearing apart any further. The edges of the pages were dirty and frayed, and I had put reinforments on some of the holes of the pages. Nevertheless, this was my faithful kitchen companion.
Today, I received this new Pink Plaid revised edition. It does not disappoint me. While it's true that some recipes have been altered, or even omitted altogether, the new, updated information it contains more than makes up for the changes some people might be unwilling to accept. For instance, the nutritional values at the end of each recipe is invaluable. This is important whether one is dieting for weight loss, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart health, or just interested in eating healthy. My old book doesnt contain this information.
I have officially retired the old book, but if, along the way, I find that I need some some old favorite, I'll simply take that page out of the old binder and insert it into the appropriate place in the new one.
Get this book. You won't be sorry.
Great Gift! February 28, 2008
This updated pink and white cover version (of the old stand-by red and white check) cookbook is great...especially for the beginning cook. Gave it to my teen as a present and she loved it! Would highly recommend it.
cook book February 5, 2008
Ordered as a replacement for my original red and white binder. Nice laminated pages; however, within 2 uses, front page still pulls away from rings. All in all very satisfied.
