What's Cooking?
It must be due to the fact that my mother is a kindergarten teacher, but I always seem to be drawn to children's books. Recently, I was given a copy of the new "Family Fun" produced cookbook "What's Cooking, A Cookbook for Kids," and I can only say how cute it is. The cookbook is based on the theme of the recent Pixar video "Ratatouille," which I highly recommend. In it you will find rat-shaped chocolate, Eiffel Tower sundaes, and even the famous Gusteau's Ratatouille. My only complaints regard the cake section, which doesn't give recipes at all, but merely offers up ideas on how to create rat-themed cakes.
