Summary: The Best Make It At Home Book Ever
Review: A friend gave me a copy of this book as a gift and I have used it religiously ever since. The author presents recipes and methods that are both practical and creative. I have saved a lot of money and impressed family and friends with the items created in this book. I am frustrated that it is out of print--I would like to get my hands on more copies to give as gifts.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: When you're looking for an alternative to superstore robbery
Review: I purchased this book when it first came out and just picked up two more copies...it's THAT useful, that I want to be sure to have backup copies for when my original one goes.

If you want an alternative to high-priced supermarket items, check here. If you want a food item with less sodium, sugar, etc., the recipes in this book can easily be adapted to your needs. For instance, I follow the instruction for Thousand Island dressing, but make substitutions and end up with a dressing which is fat-free and tastes delicious without the chemical aftertaste of mass-produced big name brands.

Of course, there's more to the book than food recipes. It's a great help when you need a cleaning product and can't get to a store or don't want to go. You can create your own with just a few ingredients you keep around the house.

It would be nice to see a new edition come out. I'm sure it would sell well.
