We’re SO excited to introduce you all to our
National Bestseller!
“Savoring the Seasons with Our Best Bites”
Isn’t she a beauty??
This book has even more never-before-seen recipes than our last book, and they will stay exclusive to the book. Here’s a teeeeny tiny sampling. Seriously, there are SO many great recipes in this book.
Kate and I spent the last year up to our necks in dirty dishes as we created, tested, and fine-tuned some amazing recipes. And we have a fantastic artistic team who worked on the layout and design of this book. We love all of the little features and attention to detail that really make it a one-of-a-kind book. Take the often-overlooked inside cover, for example. Cuteness.
And like our last book, this one has a removable book mark that snaps right into any page in the book, and it’s got a conversion chart on it!
The book is spiral-bound, but with a hard back cover and the pages are glossy and splash resistant. There is a photo (and sometimes multiple photos) for every single recipe.
Kate and I love cooking all year long, and one of our favorite things is the change of the seasons and the food that reflects that. We love cooking with things that are fresh and in-season, and that’s the whole purpose of this book. It’s separated by seasons:
So you’ll find creamy roasted butternut squash pasta and maple-glazed cookies in autumn, peppermint ice cream and garlic-rosemary prime rib in the winter, creamy asparagus soup and sweet roasted carrots in the spring, and creamy ice pops and grilled meats in the summer. Sprinkled throughout the book are mini-tutorials on crafts, holiday activities, and foodie gifts, and there’s even a whole section of cupcakes and frostings!
You can find our book at many book stores, but here are some of the major ones:
Walmart and Walmart.com (Every Walmart in the US should have our book in stock, with the exception of the “neighborhood market” stores that don’t carry books at all.)
Sam’s Clubs and Costco stores: Selected Stores, over 150 across the US
Questions & Reviews
My favorite holiday tradition is that I try to make all the holidays special…even the small ones. I try to do a special food (breakfast, snack)for each holiday. I think it makes if fun for my little ones to see what I’ve made to make the day special. 🙂
You mentioned favorite holiday traditions elsewhere
My family has Germanic roots and we love
To celebrate St Nicholas Day. We hang our
Christmas stockings on the eve of the Feast
Of Saint Nicholas (Dec 6) and the next morning
Find they’ve been filled with small gifts.
Always an orange in the toe, some nuts and
Sweets in there too. Memorable year when
A lump of coal was in a stocking with everything
Else. Joke was on my dad when my kid brother used it
Like a crayon on the walls. Never found
Coal again.
It’s rare to run into other people who celebrate
This holiday but when we do? So much
Excitement in sharing stories and comparing
Traditions. It’s like having a little Christmas a
Little early.
I love the concept of organizing recipes by season. I can hardly wait to see your new book!
I can’t wait! I pre-ordered for myself and just bought a girlfriend a copy for her 39th birthday (I printed out the receipt and put it in an envelope!)
I just noticed that you can pre-order the book on Amazon cheaper than you can at Desert Book (Any ideas why?)… http://www.amazon.com/Savoring-Seasons-Our-Best-Bites/dp/1609071328/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1344921161&sr=8-2&keywords=our+best+bites+cookbook
I gotta have it!
Can’t wait!!!!! I’ve already converted my sister and sister-in-laws to the first cookbook. So excited to tell them about the next one!
There are many good recipes but for summer desert the strawberry cheesecake ice cream is being so diferent and good for my family to have after a good Sunday dinner. Thanks for your recipes.
PS, I’m sure a zillion people give their opinion on this either way, but I think it’s funny that some people get so concerned with recipes that are exclusive to the book. I don’t mind either way. In fact, sometimes it’s nice when the recipe has appeared on the blog before – makes it easy to look up questions I have, or troubleshooting, or send the recipe to a friend or relative. Just my 2 cents that I don’t mind if the recipes in the book have been on the blog or not – why would people care, as long as the food is delicious?! 🙂
I was going to wait until Christmas to ask for your cookbook but it’s coming out so early, there’s no way I can miss all the yummy fall/winter foods for this fall, so I ordered it! Told my husband that this way, I can preview it before we give it as a gift to my mother in law and all my sisters in law. 🙂 You girls do absolutely wonderful work, and nearly every recipe I’ve tried from your last cookbook has become a regular around here. I cannot WAIT to get this cookbook in the mail!!!
