Appetizers: Fab Finger Food from the '50s (Retro Recipes)

Rating:
Summary: Cute, but overpriced and far too simplistic
Review: As a novelty gift at half the price, this would be a fun little book. As it is, do you really want to pay almost $10 for a book that tells you to put colorful garnishes on deviled eggs? Of the 20 recipes, only one was a notch above the aforementioned. This is basic fare that you'd find most anywhere and can prepare in your sleep. The boardbook is a neat idea and the 50's designer colors (aqua, salmon, and turquoise) make it a kitschy, little standout. Alas, so much more could have, and should have, been done when it came to choosing recipes.
