      <content>SLOW MEDITERRANEAN KITCHEN by Paula Wolfert - so that Rubee will also play with us. supernatural cooking looks great, however, it's a fairly new book. My entire library system has 12 copies and they are all out or on hold.</content>

I had a hard time deciding between this and Washoku, but I already own SNC so I went w/ that. I will be doing a bit of traveling in Jan. but I hope to participate as much as possible if this gets chosen.

Are we also including Heidi's website recipes?

I'm totally interested in anything folks have to say about washoku, but I think the swanson book is better for this project. with the 101cookbooks.com website!</content>

      <content>THE SLOW MEDITERRANEAN KITCHEN
I really want to cook w/ Paula Wolfert's books, and this seems to be one of her best. Comfort warming food for January.  Kinda like All About Braising by Molly Stevens, which was a big hit as COTM.

It was a toss-up w/ Heidi Swanson.  Washoku is too elaborate -- more of a coffee table book.</content>

Washoku is not available in my library, and Super Natural Cooking just isn't that appealing to me</content>
