Customer Reviews

Easy and Delicious!
This Cookbook is just great. The most things are easy to make, but takes sometimes a little while and it is just delicious! Everything it for a little something to a dinnerparty for friends. A must have for a Desperate Houswives Fan, who likes to cook. The most I like is to cook for my friends and tell him afterwords, that everything they ate was out of this book, they're always impressed about. Even more impressed are they, when I tell them, that the meals have been cooked before in the series of Desperate Houswives, they just love it like me.

Desperate to use this book...
... but yet, when I'm looking for a dish for inviting people round, I never quite get around to cooking anything in here.

It's a well-intentioned concept, grouping recipes by which of the ladies of Wisteria Lane would rustle them up. But this is the very downfall of the book - you want a pudding? You're going to have to look at each lady's puddings to find one. You want a starter? Likewise? And let's face it, if you wanted good food, you'd basically just want a whole book of Bree's food.

PS: No, I couldn't find any recipes where Bree cooks brie!

THE DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES COOKBOOK
I bought this as a gift, but I took a quick sneak-peek before I gave it away, and it is delightful. It includes the recipies mentioned on the show, and has little comments throughout from and about the various characters.
