Review: Camille Glenn's Old-Fashioned Christmas Cookbook
Camille Glenn's Old-Fashioned Christmas Cookbook by Camille Glenn
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Maybe it's just because I couldn't get out of the south fast enough, but this book is way to focued on the southern cuisine for my taste. I wish it had branched out a bit. She is however a southerner so I guess it's to be expected.
