While her culinary talents are nothing short of amazing, Hannah is constantly busy with a diverse range of projects. Not a day passes where she is not testing new recipes, staging a photo, writing a short story, or breaking out her knitting needles.

June 11, 2008: I enjoy trying diffeent recipes that my 5 year old grandson can eat. He is allergic to many foods. This book has several recipes that fit his special diet. They are delicious and Brennan and I can enjoy ourselves with other members of the family at dessert time. So, thank you very much!

February 08, 2008: Just so you know, historically I have proven to be a pretty good cook but a pretty bad baker. I love the freedom I have when I am about to 'create' a meal. That feeling quickly turns to dread when I hear either the word 'bake' or 'dessert'. I got tired of running from the dread and tired of preparing meals with no happy ending - What? No dessert? What is WRONG with you? I ordered this book because all of the pictures made it look so easy. I also ordered this book because we are exploring the Vegan, non-dairy diet. I was more than a little afraid, but I did not need to worry. I had no trouble locating the ingredients (a lot of them were new to me) and I had my husband select a desert. Great ... he selected one that appeared more complex than the rest ... figures! Well, I am happy to report, that I made the 'Cheese' Cake Thumbprint Cookies and they were GRRREAT! We are both really big cheese fans too and they tasted incredible, I was truly expecting to miss the cheese. This is a great little book ... right down to the size, the solid construction and the front and back flaps that keep your place. I am pretty rough on cookbooks so I take care to be gentle with them but with this one I don't have to worry about. Hope this helps! Take care and Happy Baking! Barbara ')
