What Real Users Are Saying

This is great!! The recipes look fabulous, and I so appreciate being able to access them without a separate recipe subscription, unlike the stingy NYT (boo hiss).

Thank you so much for such a nice, well-rounded recipe site that is included.

SO MANY gorgeous recipes and choices! I love that the comments section is back. Yes, it was all a long time coming, but so worth it.
