I love how this book not only focuses on the practicality of kitchen organization, but also on the benefits of home cooking. I also like that you pointed out her experience, her enthusiastic tone, and that the recipes were good. I'm always looking for ways to create better eating habits and also to create a space that is organised and clutter free, and your review has definitely convinced me

The author's language feels warm, and it is like she's talking with the reader; hence, the book is engrossing. The tips are highly useful for an organised kitchen. When one has an organised kitchen, it brings a sense of calmness and peace of mind.

I like the advice to put the scraps into a nearby container to avoid frequent trips to the bin. Kitchen Chaos to Culinary Bliss: Organise and Enjoy Cooking by Mary Lummerding sounds like an easy read that I'll enjoy.

Kitchen Chaos to Culinary Bliss is about making the best of home cooking. I enjoyed reading the sample where the author wanted to make easier meals rather than grinding daily. It is a nice book to enjoy cooking in the kitchen while saving and being healthy. Thanks for the review. Congrats on the BOTD!

Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review, Rebecca. I appreciate your insights into Chef Mary Lummerding's 'Kitchen Chaos to Culinary Bliss.' Your emphasis on the book's practical advice and the author's expertise in the culinary world is helpful for potential readers. The chatty and enthusiastic tone you described makes the book sound engaging and accessible, even for those who may not consider themselves skilled in the kitchen.

Your feedback on the book's depth and provocation is also valuable, as it encourages the author to consider ways to enhance the content in future editions. The inclusion of good recipes and the old-fashioned feel you mentioned can be appealing to readers looking for a comforting and nostalgic approach to cooking. Overall, your review provides a balanced and informative perspective on the book, helping readers decide if it's the right fit for their culinary journey.

I wasn't always interested in cooking. However, once I started living on my own, I had no choice but to learn. I soon realized it wasn't so bad—in fact, I started enjoying cooking for myself. Since I have a bit of OCD, I'm especially glad to have this book. I hope it includes tips on keeping the kitchen cleaner and making cooking easier. I can't wait to dive in!

Definitely not my cup of tea, because I can't organize the chaos in my kitchen even if I wanted to. And I don't want to, at all, because I don't like cooking by books. I always improvise and go by my instincts. Chaos is the cradle of creation, after all. Congrats anyway!
