Coffee Table Brightener

I found this beautiful cookbook on a reduced table and brought it home because I thought it may inspire some new recipes. It has remained on the coffee table and has, so far simply been a decorative item that blends nicely with the cushions on my couch - adding some brightness to a room with large sliding doors to the winter scene outside. One of these days I may even try some of those delicious looking desserts . . . but for now the cover photo alone makes me happy.
