At Home with Magnolia

Classic American Recipes from the Owner of Magnolia Bakery Allysa Torey's Magnolia Bakery in New York City is the place to get all-American sweet treats, like their famous pastel frosted cupcakes. But at her country home in upstate New York, Allysa cooks a lot more than desserts. Now, in this full-colour cookbook, she shares more than 90 of her favourite recipes for everyday meals-and invites you to experience the delights of country living, Allysa Torey-style. AUTHOR: Allysa Torey opened Magnolia Bakery in New York's Greenwich Village in the summer of 1996. When she wasn't baking, Allysa could be found around town singing with her fifties jazz band, The Allysa Torey Swing Band. She is also the co-author of 'The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook', and 'More from Magnolia'. In the spring of 2002, she moved to her home in upstate New York full time to devote more time to writing and pursuing her other interests, such as gardening and cooking. She lives with her collies, Sam and Daisy.
