Gini,

Before I opened this thread, I KNEW what book you were talking about. My mom bought this for me this weekend and I can't wait to sit and read the whole thing.

Maya is one of my most favorite people on earth. You know that question on who would you meet if you could me anyone? My answer would be her. I've read all her books, have almost all of her Hallmark stuff and got to see her in person last year as a participant of a Distinguished Speaker series. She was and is the most amazing person.

The cookbook is beautiful. I'm so glad you passed this along to others who may not know her.
