I've been collecting this Christmas book from Gooseberry Patch since 2002 after I found one in a grocery store and was told I was a gourmet cook from my husband! The recipes in this book are just outstanding.

BUT, if you don't buy this book for any other reason but to get that Coconut Cake recipe, you've done well! Honestly, I've NEVER made a cake from scratch with such an incredible recipe! Now I'll admit, I add my own few 'trade secrets' whenever I bake a cake from scratch, but this recipe had everyone not able to keep away from that cake! I've never had an entire cake disappear that fast in my life. If you don't like coconut, try that chocolate beauty on the front - it's a show stopper as well. This edition has a ton of new recipes that are very flavorful.

However, don't let the season fool you either - I use these books all year 'round and the compliments I receive are outstanding. There's a few casseroles you can use all winter, along with salads, cookies and sides. Great value for the money and if you're the crafty sort and like the homemade decorations, there's an exceptionally nice portion of this book dedicated to that as well. Great book, highly recommend! I always appreciate how Gooseberry Patch offers beautiful and creative ideas that are also actually doable. Gooseberry Patch Christmas Book 13 is not just a recipe book, but it also offers craft and decor suggestions that are perfect for the holidays.

Of course, there are stunning photos that show the completed dishes and projects, as well as lovely Christmas scenes indoors and out. There are fourteen sections with all kinds of festive holiday ideas, from open houses to woodland decor to casseroles and delicious blue ribbon cakes.

It also has lots of family favorites from their readers like Corn Casserole and Early Riser Breakfast Casserole or the holiday colored Cranberry Broccoli Salad. I was glad to see the chapter with treats that only use five to seven ingredients, like the Easiest Pumpkin Cupcakes with just five ingredients in it, plus the cream cheese frosting! All of the crafts would make excellent gifts and have full instructions and templates in back, from the sewing kits and aprons to a coiled rag basket.

I can't wait to start making the Snow Day Pillow that I saw in the Handmade Gift Area, with its adorable appliqued snowman and children making snow angels. And the Framed Button Tree is a perfect way to turn leftover buttons into a lovely decoration. I think it's really nice to have fun things for the kids to do while I'm cooking and getting ready for guests and they have a section for Fun and Games for the kids, with lots of good ideas, including an darling Turtle Tic Tac Toe Toss.

I have all the Christmas books now and many, many of the other cookbooks! I have so many that the bookshelf is full! But I will be passing some of these along to my daughter soon.too many to keep here! She is a wonderful cook and a new mother so will find most of the recipes easy to prepare.Then someday, she will have them all if she wants them.
