Customer Reviews

look up
"Look Up" by Lisa Thaler is an engrossing account of an artist's life. Sacha Kolin was a modernist painter and sculptor with an enormous talent and a courageous spirit, all brought vividly to the page. It's an insightful and very compelling story of an artist and a life well-lived. I was deeply moved at times. I also laughed out loud! "Look Up" is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary art or intriguing people.

Disgustingly deceptive
This book is a disgusting rip-off of The Sneaky Chef, by Missy Chase Lapine. Shame on Jessica Sklar Nederlander Seinfeld. And shame on Oprah Winfrey for endorsing this gold-digging plagiarist.

Wonderful!!
I read through a lot of reviews before writing mine. I've also used recipes from The Sneaky Chef so I even have a comparison. My kids eat very few veggies and I've had countless nights of my oldest boys crying at the table for an hour or more over cold veggies. My youngest is autistic and won't hardly eat anything. My husband is somewhere in the middle. The recipes do have to be followed exactly. I've tried making changes, like using whole wheat flour or Splenda, and they don't work well. I used beets for the chicken nuggets and fried them in a regular amount of oil and they came out fine. The husband did notice the pink layer but he was the only one. The taste was completely hidden. I did try broccoli but I tried baking them and it didn't come out well. The brownies came out best with unsweetened chocolate. They do have a slightly spongy texture to them but the kids devoured them. Cauliflower is difficult to completely puree, which is a must. The eggs need cooked longer or on a higher temp to cook out all of the water. I've put the cauliflower into boxed mac&cheese without anyone noticing. The kids love their pancakes and french toast make with sweet potatoes and carrots more than they liked the regular kind. Spinach makes its way into everything that I make with hamburger now and is undetectable. The only problem that I see is that she made everything SO healthy. Fat is a flavor carrier, and I have a ton of egg yolks to do something with. So to anyone who buys the book and the flavor tastes "off", try adding more butter/oil and remake the recipe. We're coverts.
