Barefoot in the Kitchen: A Pregnancy Survival Cookbook

This book is full of delicious recipes for your tummy (in its ever expanding pregnant mode) and tidbits for your funny bone. If you're like most gals, you probably are used to being weight conscious and watching what you eat. We can't function in this society without hearing about the latest diet or food fad. But if you're pregnant, you can relax! Sit down and enjoy FOOD! With fun and zest for life, Ms. Gardner passes on, like secrets from her circle of friends, recipes and stories that you can ENJOY and giggle at while you sit back with your feet up, trying to decide what will satisfy both you and baby. I bought this book for a friend and ended up buying another for myself. It's nice to find a cookbook which celebrates the joy in eating good food while having fun. The hints for hubby and pregancy stories are hilarious. They will make you feel like you are in the company of terrific women, and your hubby will feel like he's not marooned on the strange island of pregnancy. Many of the recipes sound like they'll work great for kids, too. The ones that I've tried are easy and yummy. I especially like the Chocolate Sandwich and the Warm Lentil Salad with Feta Cheese.
