About my cookbook reviews

I buy every cookbook and all of the ingredients to test recipes myself, without any reimbursement.

I usually test about three recipes in each book; I choose recipes that interest me and that I think people will appreciate. (Recipe selection may also be influenced by my love of baking or whatever diet I’m on at the time.)

The photos, for better or worse, are mine, unless I roped a friend into helping me. If you use them on social media please link back to my post. 

Book titles link to sales pages at Powell’s because I like supporting indy bookstores, and I participate in their partner program which pays me a commission on sales.

I don’t apologize for my posts seeming shillish, because putting together a good book is hard work and most authors aren’t compensated well enough for it.

Finally, if the author is someone I know personally, I’ll let you know.
