Finally, a cook book without all the fluff, pomp and circumstance. Emma Buckley nails the basics of putting together a holiday feast for family and friends. With this book you can plan a full-on festive meal -- from appetizer to after-dinner drinks -- and never have to leave your Kindle once. And you don't have to wade through a sea of ink just to get to the recipes.Need some quick appetizers for a last minute get-together? Bam! Fire up these chicken wings and spinach artichoke dip. Easy.Or, let's say you have the roast turkey part taken care of, and you're just looking for the right sides: How can you go wrong with mashed sweet potatoes and green beans with bacon?Even if you get this just for the desserts it will be well worth the investment. (Heavenly Raspberry Cheesecake, anyone?)For 99 cents (price I paid) dinner is done. The only thing you'll have to worry about is who's going to do the dishes.
