Shanna Hatfield has a website that is very nice. Her book puts together some really good ideas to celebrate spring with some yummy recipes. I was worried when I came across the vodka crust recipe. I remember when it first came out from America's Test Kitchen, it was such a unique way of making crust and very original. Without a nod to ATK I was worried the rest of the recipes from the book might be from other sources, but other than the panna cotta being close to a Southern Living recipe, the rest seem to come from Shanna's own website, whew. It's nice to review a book these days that isn't cut and paste! Yaythere is a fully functional linking Table of Contents for ease of getting around in the book. I can't wait to make the lime floral centerpiece, I bet that smells fantastic.Although a short book there are good ideas for bringing spring in, from basic spring cleaning to giving your house good smells and pretty flowers.
