I LOVE this cookbook!

http://www.worldcommunitycookbook.org/season/index.html

Simply in Season...

OK so I bought this for myself for dh to give to me for Christmas, and I love it! For a couple years now I've been trying to eat seasonal, getting all my produce at the farmers market, eating lots of cabbage and beets in the winter and berries in the summer.
This is just a gorgeous cookbook with all the recipes broken down into season. If you're familiar with the other Mennonite cookbooks like "More is Less" - this one also has little stories about everything from the state of the global agriculture to personal stories about farming and gardening.
Mainly I love it because it falls in line with what I believe about being conscious of the food we buy and eat.
I admit I haven't tried any recipes yet, lol, but they look like they strike just the right balance between simple and interesting.

ETA: And I just discovered the author has a blog. This week's recipe: Maple Turnip Stew.
