This beautiful first edition is near fine, no marks, pages are tight and appear unread, the book is tight, square, and unmarked. The dust jacket is unmarked, and the boards match the design of the dust jacket. What makes this cookbook special is the blend of its culinary content with Tasha's signature watercolor illustrations, which add to the cozy, nostalgic feel of the book. It's not just a collection of recipes, but a reflection of her life philosophy-celebrating simplicity, family traditions, and a connection to the past. For those who admire Tasha Tudor's artwork and approach to living, this cookbook offers a peek into her world through food, stories, and beautiful art.
