Staff copy editor reviews "Nigella Christmas"

"NIGELLA Christmas" is the gift you give before the holidays.

At the time of year when even Scrooges think about the delights of special food, popular TV personality and best-selling author Nigella Lawson offers more ideas for irresistible dishes for family and friends. And this new, glossy cookbook is bound to be a winner both given and received.

Known for her sensual appreciation for preparing and enjoying food, Nigella presents in this beautiful volume scores of recipes to cheer winter days and nights in the dining room. All are detailed with a generous measure of her characteristic good humor.

There are cocktails like "Santa's Little Helper," hors d'oeuvres, brunch pleasers and desserts that are to drool for. "The Main Event" is devoted to that special holiday dinner, perhaps on Christmas Day, with options traditional or vegetarian.

The next best thing to joining Nigella for the holidays is enjoying this special time of year through these appealing recipes.
