Mod Cocktails, by Natalie Jacob (Page Street Publishing, November 5, 2019) is a really chic book. It presents modern takes on cocktail recipes from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Even though the Mad Men television show craze is over, I still have lots of friends who worship mid-century design and are nostalgic for those three decades. I might slip a ...
Mimi Council’s “Cookies for Everyone” book was released on November 5, 2019. It features “100 customizable bakeshop recipes.” I received a temporary digital Advance Reader Copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

There are so many new cookbooks out this week I can barely catch up! I’m snooping around on Amazon and other booksellers’ websites, making my Christmas list (both for cookbooks I want to gift people and cookbooks I want to beg Santa for!)

The mid-century illustrations are charming, but the mid-century food photography is atrocious and several of the recipes are definitely, entertainingly disgusting looking to modern eyes. Chapters include: Dinner Parties (Gay supper parties; easy little dinners; classic ...
The Little Women Cookbook: Tempting Recipes from the March Sisters and Their Friends and Family, by Wini Moranville (October 2019; Harvard Common Press). I found this to be a delightful cookbook with darling illustrations and nice color food photography. It was easy to follow and a quick read, but perhaps a little on the slim side – I wanted ...
An Epicurean sniffs that Tartine isn’t what it used to be. The Sun Journal imagines Vincent Price as something of a Proto-Bourdain. Vogue recommends 11 Fall Cookbooks for Every Type of Foodie, including Alpine Cooking which is on my library holds list, and Butcher and Beast which won’t appear on this vegetarian blogger’s list. The Chicago Tribune peeks at recipes ...
