and it arrived yesterday. I didn't get a chance to really check it out yet, but when I did glance at the recipes, it looks to be the same page set up as the magazine. I paid $28.65 total from Buy.com. I will check it out more this weekend and give a full review.

I have a feeling it will be quite familiar looking! I am waiting until it shows up at Costco.

Is that the new one, where they have 20 years of the magazine all in one volume?

If so, I just got an ad for it in my email. I was thinking about getting it. I only have a couple years of the mags, and they're sporadic.

I've been collecting the annuals when I find them used and cheap. I've got about half of the years....would love to know if it would be worth it to buy. Hopefully costco here gets it soon.

I had a few minutes this morning to look at this again. I looked at the index to see if they had my favorite CI recipes and they did, so it will be nice to have them all in one book. Looking at Roast Chicken and Brownies, they picked the most popular recipes for this book. Each of these has 4 or 5 recipes listed. The Brownies has Classic, Chewy, Turtle and Cream Cheese. I think this is a nice compilation of their best recipes of the last 20 years.

Costco has it now. I looked through it and wasn't impressed enough, fwiw.
