Rating:  - Better Home& Gardens Anniversary Limited Edition (Loose Leaf)
I purchased this book for myself last year and never opened it until a few days ago to look up Bread Pudding recipe. I found it in the index / ref to page 252. I thumbed through to discover that page 252 was missing, along with the whole chapter. I am extremely disappointed in this book and am presently trying to find the publisher to retrieve the pages/chapter that is missing. Has anyone else experienced this with their book? I hope not, what a let down. This puts a new spin on Special Edition, ... Read More
Rating:  - A replacement for my wife's 40 year cookbook
My wife was extremely happy to receive this cookbook. It will replace her 40 year old Better Homes cookbook which she used consistently for 40 years.
Rating:  - Just Buy It
Many people have gone on at length about this book.
Short and to the point. I speak as a clueless, middle aged male who was forced to start doing his own cooking. I remembered this book being in my grandmother's and mother's kitchens many, many years ago. So when I really needed some help (ok, a lot of help), this was a first choice.
It made me into a decent cook. I figure it can do the same for anybody. Don't overthink, or spend forever reading reviews. Just buy it. ... Read More
Rating: - Exactly what I was looking for!
This cookbook was exactly what I was looking for. It has great, simple to follow recipes. It also contains basic recipes that I had a hard time finding in other cookbooks. Many times we don't want anything fancy - just some good, make-you-smile food. It has become my favorite cookbook - and I have many cookbooks!
Rating: - Maybe 4 1/2. Very Good Choice for the Cookbook with everything
The `New Cookbook, 14th Edition' from `Better Homes and Gardens' is a heavyweight contender for best `if you have to have only one cookbook...' title, weighing in against the perennial champion, `The Joy of Cooking', now at its 75th Anniversary edition. The first of these contenders has been my mother's favorite for at least the last 40 years, and her original copy is so beat up (thus the purchase of a new edition), I can't even see the publication date on its binder, where the covers have literally ...
