This week at Eat Your Books

Since our last roundup, Darcie has written articles that include a piece on Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough, a cookbook power couple, looking back at the decade in food, St. John celebrates a quarter-century, Tom Parker Bowles on his latest cookbook and the ‘Two Fat Ladies’. Darcie’s weekly food news antipasto is shared every Sunday (#foodnews brings up these information-packed posts).

I am a planner and while recovering from 2019, I have been looking forward to 2020’s cookbooks. The looking forward to 2020 cookbooks post provides an outline of upcoming cookbooks that I have uncovered to date. Throughout the year, this post will be frequently updated with new additions, edits to titles and publication dates and more!

The Cookie Time article has been updated with a few more links to recipes! You can turn to our gift guide for the cookbook lover and for the baker for inspiration this gift-giving season. Don’t forget if you buy a gift certificate you can win cookbooks for yourself.

We are also continually updating our Kindle & Holiday Deals post so please be sure to check daily for sales! During your holiday shopping and everyday online shopping, we appreciate you using our affiliate links located through every Buy Book link and on our home page (lower right corner). The small commission we make helps to finance improvements to our site as well as indexing efforts.
