The intro to this cookbook states "Although the editors have made some of the dishes presented here and have been pleased with the results, the recipes as a whole have not been systematically tested. Have fun – but proceed at your own risk!" ?

Nute Good gracious! That‘s one crazy way to introduce a cookbook. 7y

Thank you to @swishandflick for the tag! If I had to pick any 5 authors to have dinner with, it would be:
Jodi Picoult-one of my fave authors & she has random knowledge on so many topics due to her research.
Maya Angelou-I'd want to hear about her experiences with the civil rights movement
Gillian Flynn-To discuss her f-ed up thoughts & story ideas
Margaret Atwood-understand the brain behind The Handmaid's Tale
JK Rowling-it'd be MAGIC!

bibliophagist89 @Kaylamburson couldn't of picked better myself #jodipicoult is def my fav author! And i love all the others you chose for the same reasons, seems like we have the same book/author likes. #greatmindsthinkalike 7y
Kaylamburson I love that, @bibliophagist89!! #booktwins! I have met Jodi Picoult, too, and she's so nice and down to earth. It would be such a dynamic dinner party. I'll make sure to invite you when we invent time travel for Ms. Angelou and I can get the gang together 😉 7y
bibliophagist89 OmG!! So did I! 😊😂😂 It was when she was on tour for Leaving Time, she is lovely and so approachable. I was lucky enough to get to ask her a question, have my pic taking with her and get a signed copy of Leaving Time. Hope so much she'll come over thisnway again. 😂 hahaha yep sure I'll be right over 😊 7y

@ElizaTodd tagged me for #5fordinner 🙌🏽

If this looks familiar to anyone, it's because there was a similar prompt during the last 24in48 readathon and I think my answers still hold! I really want to be at this dinner party! Don't hate me for reusing one of my previous posts 😆

I'm tagging: @Kaylamburson and @CoffeeCatsBooks (if you haven't already done one!)

Kaylamburson Love! I haven't done one yet, so I'll have to tomorrow! 7y

Moving right along with "March." Eating at my desk. Oh, and I had a square of chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream filling.

Donna_sBookMinute @sprainedbrain -- It was so good. Funny thing about pictures, though. When I look at this one, that salad is drowning in dressing! 😂. @RealLifeReading -- The cake topped it off. 8y
