This is that gorgeous cookbook (displayed with pride in every cooking/food related store here in Portland) with the watercolors of Portland scenes throughout. The cover has watercolor of Portland's Rose Garden with view of Mount Hood off in the distance. (The Rose Garden does, actually, have a gorgeous view of Mount Hood.) Every cook here, I think, longs for this book. I finally could stand it no more, and bought it--$19.95. It's the kind of book that you see displayed in model kitchens--so pretty, so special to us in Portland.
