Hi Ali.. I think you are a good friend to promote your friend's cookbook but I think you probably have a huge following form "The Biggest Loser" and some of those people cannot resist temptation and I wouldn't want to see them baking these cakes that are sweet and yummy but not good for their cause... You must know that some would go and buy that book just b/c you recommend it..Right/ I guess that is the point of telling us about it...Normally a cool thing to do but not so much if a lot of your audience is healthy eating challenged IMHO ...Now, that being said, I will buy her book b/c I am not over weight and make cakes for birthdays Love ya.. Janine

I am hugh days fan I loved the sweater you were waering on 9/8 and 9/9 2011 black white and gray 

I eat too much dessert and have to cut down and then maybe even out for a bit but thanks for the reccomendation

Buying the book, all the ingredients to bake a cake takes a lot of forthought and planning.  Those of us that have temptation problems (myself included) are usually looking for instant gratification!  Good of you to promote this very nice book!

One can enjoy the Cake Simple book without having to eat cake. I love looking through cookbooks but cooking/baking is not one of my favorite things to do.  

I think it's really wonderful of you, Ali, to help promote your friend's book. I will check it out when I go to the bookstore tomorrow.

Have a great week!

I love collecting cook books they look so good in the book shelf and the narratives and photos are usually what draw me in.   Do i use many of them no.  Stick to a few.

I had a quick glimpse through Cake Simple on Amazon this  looks like a  book I will add to my  christmas gift giving  list  thanks.  My sister and mother inlaw  would love it. Their both talented  cake and biscuit bakers.

 Cakes are rare in my household with a child anaphylactic to wheat, dairy and eggs.

Though when i feel like a sweet treat on a special occassion The Hopetoun Tea Rooms in Collins st Melbourne  are a decedent home made indulgence.   

Just looking at the window display is delicous.

This looks like a great book! Baking can get me into trouble sometimes, since I tend to do it when I'm sitting around the house, bored.  I'll def check this out!!

I collect cookbooks, so I will definitely check this one out when I go to the bookstore.  Thanks, Ali. ♥
