Book Reviews of Christmas with Southern Living 2009
Book Review: Average
Summary: 3 Stars
If you're the type who anxiously awaits this each year (I have every year since 1993), then the book is worth the buy. However, it is definitely not one of SL's best years - if you don't buy this every year, or you're tight on cash, I'd find a copy to view before purchasing. Several decorating ideas are silly looking (example - hanging forks and upside-down wine glasses, via ribbon, off of a chandelier). However, there is an adorable idea where plates are hung, on the wall, to resemble a Christmas tree design (although I don't know what one would do with the nail holes through the rest of the year). There is also a beautiful guide to decorating a mantle with greenery and silver ornaments. Some of the cake mix recipes, featured as an item in the book's description, seem as though they'd be good (but be warned they appear to be as involved as any other SL cake recipe - the cake mix doesn't appear to be a time saver, just an ingredient). There aren't as many good recipes as last year, but there appear to be some good recipes such as Holiday potato bake, caramelized vidalia onion dip, red velvet cookies with cream cheese frosting, pumpkin spice bars, chocolate bourbon pecan cake, and triple layer peanut butter brownie bars. It's not the best year but it's also not the worst - one good thing is that I didn't see any ideas recycled from past magazine or book issues (which is a common trick you'll find, when you follow SL for any length of time).

Cake Mix Magic shares the secret to preparing easy desserts with eight designed-to-impress cakes that start with a mix.Big Fat Cookies will wow friends, family, and everyone on the gift list with 10 filled, frosted, and seriously oversized treats that bring out the child in everyone. Add to that 15 more recipes for sweet gifts from the kitchen and six pages of do-it-yourself gifts, and suddenly gift shopping becomes fun, not frantic.
Big, colorful photos inspire charming Christmas accents for every room in the house. Whether it's a garden-themed front porch setting or a simple sideboard arrangement, this book's updated decorating approach is easy, inexpensive, and fun. From a make-it-in-minutes table runner to centerpiece containers made from tin cans, the results are amazingly appealing.
