Praise for Home Made Summer: Think of van Boven as the activities director of your own culinary summer camp . . . Home Made Summer is a happy book fun to look at fun to read. Its downright frivolous in fact. And thats what summer is all about.  New York Times Book Review In the last two years she has published three cookbooks Home Made Home Made Winter and Home Made Summer that exemplify the indie spirit: They're filled with her illustrations and do-it-yourself recipes like hand-cranked ice cream from-scratch mustards and Dutch-style beef sausages and croquettes.
