Comments from readers: Even if you've never been to magnificent Lake Winnipesaukeee in central NH, this wonderful compilation of recipes and stories of island life on the Lake will leave you longing for those long lost, lazy days of summer spent with family and friends. One can almost smell the lake, pine needles and camp fires just thumbing through its pages. The very essence of summer has been captured perfectly within the pages of Hungry for Summer. I look forward to sampling many of wonderful recipes featured in this little treasure! Wishing you tremendous success!!!! - Carol I LOVE the cookbook! … Honestly, I'm not sure if I love the recipes or the stories more. You did a great job, it was definitely worth the wait. So, thank you so much for this! I see it as a new little treasure for many, many years to come! - Mink Island “A GEM!” - Barbara, Center Harbor My husband and I were poking around the Innisfree Bookshop in Meredith last weekend while taking a break from rainy Mark Island when we saw the cookbook. I bought a copy - signed by you both, of course! - and I really enjoyed reading it. And I got a chuckle that most of the cocktail recipes were submitted by us Mark Island folks! - Mark Island The book is very fun--fun to read, a beautiful cover, great title. You both did a fabulous job, and I hope book sales sustain you for many years to come! - Dolly Island I have resorted almost entirely to using the internet for recipes and vowed I'd never buy another cookbook - but I just had to have this one! I love it! I can almost smell the lake, islands and pine needles just thumbing through it. You captured the essence of "summer" in your book...even for those of us who didn't spend our days on Winnipesaukee. I look forward to trying many of the recipes found within. - John & Carol A cookbook is a reference book, a tool to be used for specific tasks to prepare and plan means. Or so I thought, until I picked up Hungry For Summer and read it like a novel. Through the stories, photographs, and recipes in this cookbook, the authors radiate their joy of entertaining friends and family in kitchens that often lack frills and conveniences. The recipes are easy to make and offer something for any occasion. It’s a great gift, too! It’s a present that lets people experience the magic of summer on the lake. - Sue, Mink Island It was such a good idea to bring together the stories and recipes of the islands, and in doing so, you’ve also brought together the people who live on the islands in such a nice, proud way. No one thought of it before you. It’s the only book of its kind! I know these recipes will work, even for me. I love giving it to friends. It’s the only gift I’ve ever given that I’ve been thanked multiple times for -- and told that they would be giving them out as gifts, too! - Mink Island Congratulations! Did you ever dream when you started this project that it would be such a mammoth undertaking? But now the success begins and so well deserved, too. Before you sell out, I'd better rush to your website and order some for me and my family! I'll also be getting some as gifts for my summer visitors, too! Best wishes for a very successful summer of sales! - Margy, Mink Island
