Now i'll use it less sparingly and look for that sweeter oregano flavor. I love so many spices...cumin, curry, garam masala...chili powders. I don't think I could pick just one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096285007152818183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-43807142669872404792009-11-13T23:04:33.662-10:002009-11-13T23:04:33.662-10:00Thanks Everyone!

I am going for sure next year--was bummed I didn't get to meet you.<br /><br />Laurie--I would be happy to review any cookbook you write! ;-)Deb in Hawaiihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753889028487254096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-17851880077674861632009-11-13T18:54:39.889-10:002009-11-13T18:54:39.889-10:00Deb, if I ever write a cookbook I want you to revi...Deb, if I ever write a cookbook I want you to review it! You did such a great job of testing the recipes and adding your own spin - which is exactly what I love most about cooking.<br /><br />Your kale salad looks awesome! I love everything green and kale is one of the few fresh ones I can still find at my local farmers' market, which is about to close for the season :(Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05054086165490704114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696248883608841507.post-57150702413462151862009-11-13T16:27:17.470-10:002009-11-13T16:27:17.470-10:00I hadn't heard of this cookbook yet, but I'...I hadn't heard of this cookbook yet, but I'll be searching it out in stores. I love the cauliflower. It sounds delicious with the pine nuts and capers. I know exactly what you mean about homemade granola. It's addictive. The pears and pomegranate were a perfect and very pretty addition!

I love cumin, too. I need to find more time to sit down and really read a cookbook.

I think my fave is any variation of curry which I know is several spices, but so great together!<br /><br />Did you make it to the Foodbuzz fest? I thought you had mentioned it, but now everything is running together a bit.

I love heavily spiced foods and am always look for new combinations that work together. My favorite spice of the moment is probably...cinnamon.

I am a spice fiend and have well over a hundred herbs and spices. <br />Love the unique showcases for them, and am especially intrigued by the cardamom today. I don't know if I have a favourite, but today I think it is cardamom. :)<br />Thanks for introducing us to this book!NKPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963976997563464573noreply@blogger.com
