She's a really charming writer, and has some wonderful passages (I loved when she described two matrons as looking as though their only exercise had been jumping to conclusions about how to look younger).

This collection of essays is a perfectly pleasant read, a little dated by now in terms of topic some of the time, but still very charming. Compared to the way she really let loose in her I Hate to Cook Book and its sequel, though, these are a bit tame. A lovely read, but not one I'll long remember, I suspect.

(Note: 5 stars = amazing, wonderful, 4 = very good book, 3 = decent read, 2 = disappointing, 1 = awful, just awful. I'm fairly good at picking for myself so end up with a lot of 4s).
