This part of the post is for Shelly. I hope you do find the book and enjoy it. I have made pancakes, waffles, almond french toast and strata from it. It's a wonderful book with loads of variations for each recipe. It also includes soups and salads, an apricot ginger jam I want to try among other things. This fall I'm making the pear struesel coffee cake as soon as the pears get ripe. Now how divine does that sound. All the recipes are easy and she explains the steps.

I use Ina's recipe for Corn Chowder and it is divine. I had never eaten Corn Chowder before and a few years ago she made it on her show. It sounded so good I had to try it. I fell in love and now make it every summer when corn is at it's peak. For the recipe go
here.

The pie is Martha's and she would totally have a stroke if she knew I used a frozen pie crust. I'm sorry Martha, please forgive me. It was an easy recipe to make and one of the best peach pie's I've had. You can get the recipe
here. I just happened to have some Creme
Fraiche on hand. I've been making salmon roasted with Creme
Fraiche which is another post.
Enjoy and Bon Appetit!!
