Inspired by the whimsical movie, The 'Wizard of Oz' Cookbook begins with a brief stop in Kansas for some of Aunt Em's heartland fare and then soars over the rainbow to the fantasy-food in the land of Oz. These easy-to-follow recipes (each with a maximum of ten ingredients and short preparation time), are sprinkled with amusing trivia from the movie. The book is intended to be useful as a party planner. Following the inspiration of the original film, each chapter is organized around a theme - a dinner party in Kansas, a kids' party in Munchkinland, a cocktail party at the Witch's castle, a dessert party in Emerald City, and so on. Along the yellow brick road, we find such treats as Emerald Castle Cake, Wicked Witch's Brew, Kansas Crullers, Munchkinland Lollipops and Yellow Brickle brownies.
