Not on Love Alone

A Year of Delicious Dinners and More for Newlyweds

By Saunders, Jessie Carry

Publishers Summary:
The honeymoon is over (sigh), and you've finally put away the monogrammed china and returned the extra juicer. Your brand new kitchen is clean and tidy and ready to be used--but now what? Before you dash to the microwave or call for takeout, turn to Not on Love Alone. This deliciously charming cookbook offers newly married couples delightful menus for each month of their newlywed year, plus a bonus anniversary menu. Full of suggestions for simple, elegant meals, it makes it easy for newlyweds to sit down and share a relaxed but romantic repast. Author Jessie Carry Saunders offers seasonal menus organized chronologically around the first year of marriage. Starting in January, each month has a main dinner menu based on the seasons' best offerings, and a smaller menu, ranging from breakfast to lunch to drinks to dessert, for when a full menu is too much to tackle. There are also dozens of cooking and entertaining tips, ingredients notes, shopping aids, and equipment pointers sprinkled throughout, accompanied by the author's own charming drawings. Having learned to cook as a young girl at her food-lover father's side, Saunders writes with a tone that is both surefooted and casual. She is determined to persuade every newly married couple that they can cook, and--with her mix of delicious recipes and cooking tips--to encourage one and all that they can be confident and comfortable making great meals. Infused with Saunders's humor, advice, and laid-back style, Not on Love Alone is in itself a recipe for a happy marriage.
