I just bought In the Sweet Kitchen during my visit to Vancouver. My parents live only a block away from an Indigo. Anyway, it's a very informative book and I can definitely see why it won a James Beard award. I thought the chocolate chip cookie recipe in there was just ok, but then I was half asleep the whole time I was in Vancouver and probably messed up somehow.
How were you able to order from
www.bn.com? I looked before my trip and it says Not Yet Released (release date is August 2001). That's why I decided to just pick up a copy when I went home.
