Little Everyday Cakes by Candace Floyd
I love baking cakes and cupcakes, but I rarely do because it's always a large amount and I don't need 2 dozen cupcakes hanging out at home - because I WILL eat them. So, this book offers recipes for lots of cakes that only make a smaller amount. I can't wait to try some of them! The chocolate malt cake looks AMAZING - with crushed malted milk balls in between the layers. This might be worth buying because it would be nice to have some small-batch cake recipes on hand all the time.
Cooking From Scratch by Jill Lightner
A food buying club that started in the Seattle area in the 1950's became Puget Consumers Co-op in 1961 and since then have been expanding to provide more organic and sustainable grown food for their community. They also branched out into teaching cooking classes and that is partially what led to this cookbook. The book is laid out like many cookbooks with chapters on breakfast, main dishes, sides, etc. but I did like that at the end they have all the recipes organized by season - when the ingredients would be in-season. Overall lots of great recipes and quite a few that I'd like to try out. Definitely a good cookbook if you're looking to cook more from scratch or in season.
