Incredible Food … a magnificent cookbook … and a very worthy cause … how’s that for tempting?

Surrender to the allure of West Michigan.
We may be biased, but we think West Michigan is one of the finest spots on Earth. It's lavished with a bounty of inland lakes and forests, dotted with cities that run the gamut from hip art colony to bustling metropolis to laid-back resort, and peopled by genuine folk who believe in the value of hard work and the kindness of strangers.

Our most important and most distinguishing natural resource has always been the Great Lakes. Lake Michigan is the greatest contributing factor to the lives and lifestyles of West Michigan. These dazzling blue waters shape our climate, lengthen our growing season, and dominate our recreation. You'll see the effects of Lake Michigan throughout this book - in the distinctive scenery of the seasons, in the abundance of recipes calling for just-picked produce and fresh fish and in the smiles on sun-drenched faces.

Some temptations are too grand to resist
