There is a little bit of interest in my cookbooks in one particular group on Facebook...and several members have asked for information. The info I shared a couple of years ago on this blog is already outdated (as far as shipping) and I need to update.
There are three cookbooks...below are photos of the covers, brief descriptions, price when ordered from me, and shipping info. I can also sign the books, if you wish.
If you prefer, you can also find them on Amazon. Just type in the title and my name. I cannot sign those, since I'm not the seller, unless you opt for 'other sellers' and choose 'foodiesleuth' or 'cubanwahine' and shipping is $3.96 per book. If you order from Amazon, there might be a Prime option, but not when ordered from me as 'other seller'
