I don't have any of her cookbooks, but every single recipe of hers
that I've used, especially the "101s," have been "perfect" and gotten
rave reviews. I have no complaints, whatsoever. I don't believe her
recipes are difficult so much as they require a lot of attention to
detail, which doesn't bother me. I've looked through the appetizer
book and think I'd like to have it, but right now, I'm collecting
pop-up books. ;-)
