Product Description

Whether youre entertaining garden sprites, feeding a regiment of toy soldiers, or simply whiling away a lazy afternoon, is the only make-believe cookbook youll ever need. With Marjorie Winslows timeless guide on hand, youll never be at a loss for something to do in your backyard or by the seashore; youll be busy scooping up sand (a filling for Stuffed Sea Shells), hunting for flower petals (they make lovely hors doeuvres), and collecting raindrops (essential for brewing up Fried Water). The book is organized by course, and includes a general discussion of yard cookery along with detailed ingredient lists, methods for preparation, and helpful serving suggestions. And on every page, Erik Blegvads delightful pen-and-ink drawings ensure that is a feast for the eyes as well as the imagination.
