Summary: Humorous and upbeat!
Review: I loved the book. Thought Ms.Bull did a great job of telling us the story combined with the recipes. She can write more along this vein and have a faithful following waiting in the wings. I found her humor along the lines of Erma Bombeck. The only reason I could figure out for this other "reviewer" to say that the book was "whining" is because they just don't "get it." If they did, they'd see how funny the book actually is. The recipes are funny, the way she'd write the ingredients and instructions and then had a quirky comment that related to the lost love. Very cute idea.

Summary: rings a bell
Review: I've been in her shoes, and i know how it feels to search for peace. She does a great, amusing job describing her search. I did not like the ending all that much (too predictable). On another note, i am sure few are going to go to the store and buy a book on canning, yet this book has perfectly good recipes that one can follow. Canning, a lost art, now recovered thanks to DB

Summary: A Recipe for Mending
Review: Simply stated, one of the best books for healing and growth (and humor) I've ever read...well, to be specific, I've ever read 5 times! It's a simple read, yet keeps your eyes glued to its pages; its voice strikes you right to your core and makes you wonder if it wasn't written solely for you! I've loaned it to friends a million times over, and it's never been received with anything less than pure excitement, relief, pleasure, and appreciation. Great writing, great book, great lessons. It's both practical and spiritual, humorous and poignant, insightful and memorable. It's a book you won't soon forget.

Summary: A gorgeous, gorgeous book
Review: This little book offers so much: beautiful packaging of the hardcover (worth the extra dollars), punchy writing, wry sense of humor and canning recipes even! I love this book. It's the cutest-looking book I own. I wasn't going through heartbreak when I read it, but if I was, it would have given me a lift. Support this wonderful writer, and buy her book.Barbara DeMarco Barrett, writer and host of "Writers on Writing"
