The author is a friend of mine -- she used to be the head of my department when I first started working -- and I was one of her recipe testers since dietrich was born. I can honestly say that the beer, beef and barley stew and the turkey pesto meatballs are wonderful! (the stew was the first stew I've ever made) I think it would make a great shower gift or new-parent gift, too.
