Nominees for the James Beard Foundation/KitchenAid Cookbook Awards

I'm a little late reporting this, but it's still interesting: the nominees for the James Beard Foundation/KitchenAid Book Awards have been announced. There are several categories: · Baking And Desserts · Cooking From A Professional Point Of View · Entertaining And Special Occasions · Food Of The Americas · General · Healthy Focus · International · Reference · Single Subject · Wine And Spirits · Writing On Food · Photography There are some interesting titles here, some of which I want to run out and buy (like Mangoes and Curry Leaves: Culinary Travels Through the Great Sub-Continent or Vegetarian Suppers From Deborah Madison's Kitchen). Then there are the ones that I won't be buying, but certainly have eye-catching titles, such as Bones: Recipes, History, and Lore. This site also contains a list of past winners. Via Rebecca's Pocket.
