My Martha question

Nancy, I have her _Entertaining_ book and have not been impressed with
the recipes atall atall. I tried a cream cheese stuffed cherry tomato
recipe topped with red and black caviar that was a disaster. The
caviar bled into the cream cheese and looked horrible, not to mention
not a taste sensation. I'd estimate 40% of the recipes I've tried out
of that book have been gawdawful to pedestrian and I fancy myself a
fairly good "recipe reader." Much of the recipes seem to be long on
presentation (with the aforementioned glaring exception) and short on
taste.
And lovely to see your post, toots! You are missed!
