For someone that gets home late from work this cookbook has been amazing for me! The meal preps are quick and everything I've made so far has been delicious! I pre-ordered, was so excited for this book to arrive, and have been cooking out of it since I got it! Thank you Gina!

I am writing this review after six-months of use. The reason for the missing star is due to the sheath having a knife-locking system made from a softer, metal that corrodes in saltwater. I love the knife and feel the knife alone is worth the price. It has everything I could want in a kayak-knife: Square semi-sharp tip, serrated edge, and most important, a recessed line-cutter on the back of the blade that will accept larger diameter cordages. The blade is nicely designed and has adequate heft that feels good in the hand, for a less-expensive, yet not cheaply made knife. While I have never drawn the knife for the use it was intended for, I have needed it for cutting cord and light prying. Now on to the sheath...finger-clasps that release the knife are made of some mild-metal and corrode badly in saltwater, even though I rinse everything I use in fresh water within an hour of getting home. I'm guessing I will need to discontinue using the sheath after a year because the corrosion will be advance enough to effect the integrity of the sheath. Had the option been available, I would have paid more for this knife with stainless steel hardware.

I've only been using this product for 8 days. Some people may say it's too soon to review; however, "some people" do not have acne as bad as I DID. I've got that- "made an appt. with a dermatologist, but he was too busy to see me so I had to see the physician assistant instead; when I got to the office, she took one look at my face and said ""oh my God, I've got to get the doctor for this"" -kind of skin. I have cystic acne combined with REALLY sensitive skin. I can't even spray perfumes on certain parts of my body without it breaking out really, really bad. Complete strangers walk up to me and ask me what am I using on my skin. How embarrassing is that? I wake up EVERY morning with whiteheads and/or blackheads on my face. My chest and back look like my face x20. Antibiotics,Proactive,and Murad only made the situation worse. I stopped eating fatty foods and I lost weight, but the acne continue to get worse the older I get. I drank only water for months at a time, but that did no good. Finally, hundreds of dollars later, I decided to give this product a try. This is the best my skin has looked in over 15 years. I was a skeptic, but trust me, this works.

I own and love all of Craig Johnson's books; he is one of my favorite authors, and i have 4 season's of Longmire on dvd. I look forward to the next one in the series. I grew up in a small town in Colorado, went to college in Denver in the 60's and have been on several trips to Wyoming, so these are like a trip home (minus the murders, of course).
