Holiday Pumpkins: A Collection of Recipes, Gifts, and Decorations

Summary: FOR THE UPPER-CRUST
Review: This book was a let-down for me. I love autumn, and I love all things made of pumpkin! However, this book didn't appeal to me. The recipes were dull and not very appealing ( try "Frisee Salad with Deep-Fried Pumpkin Bits and Lardons", or "Butterhead Lettuce and Pumpkin Blossom Salad"). The crafts were nothing special. Martha Stewart has this book beat by a mile. Also, I didn't like the way the photos are "fuzzed out." It gave them a dull, lifeless look. Not at all festive. There is nothing casual or homey about this book; it has a very formal look to it.

This book is not worth the price.
