this is basically just like her first book, but includes a little more info, like a section on wine tasting, and entertaining. and a thousand different ways to wear a scarf. she's entertaining to read, and has some great ideas- but she's more geared towards the neiman marcus crowd- where i'm more in the target crowd! the book is split into different seasons, which is great- but honestly, i buy what i can for as cheap as possible! and we dont have farmers markets year around. still fun to read though an...more so this is basically her first book, but includes a little more info, like a section on wine tasting, and entertaining. and a thousand different ways to wear a scarf. she's entertaining to read, and has some great ideas- but she's more geared towards the neiman marcus crowd- where i'm more in the target crowd! the book is split into different deasons, which is great- but honestly, i buy what i can for as cheap as possible! and we dont have farmers markets year around. still fun to read though and i got a bunch of new reicpes to try. just wish more were vegan friendly!!

I wasn't too sure if I would like this book, not having read the original French Women book but it was recommended by a friend so I gave it a whirl. I really liked it! It's an easy read but still has lots of useful info complete with plenty of recipes (but not so many that it just becomes a cookbook). Nice change of pace; very informal style is relaxing and enjoyable to read.
