 Reviews of Renee's Cookbooks:

 from The New York Times:
" . . . the best of these were collected in "Recipes from a Kitchen Garden" . . . It is filled with fast, fresh food and unexpected flavor combinations. It is just right to take along as a present for a weekend and is as useful to people who rely on farmers' markets and supermarkets as it is to exemplary gardeners.
      Now, there is "More Recipes from a Kitchen Garden. Like the first book, it is not strictly for vegetarians; it has recipes for fish, chicken and meat, albeit always cooked with something from the garden. The 300 new recipes include lots of aromatic herbs, chiles and edible flowers , lemon thyme buttermilk biscuits, curried cucumbers and a perfectly balanced cilantro and lime-based mixture that can be an all-purpose marinade, sauce or salad dressing. Taken together, the books are an admirable collection of healthy, unpretentious and delicious recipes . . ."

from Horticulture Magazine:
". . . If one can apply such an adjective to cookbooks, both are merry - full of simplicity, health and good cheer. That is not surprising, considering the genesis of these recipes. First Shepherd gathers the best things available in her trial garden; then she confers with her cooking companion and coauthor, Fran Raboff, about the best treatment for her produce; and then the two set off on a cooking and eating orgy, with good friends who convivially make suggestions as they consume the results. That is, of course, the way good recipes are born, and lucky are those who attend one of these cooking-eating sprees."
