The cookbook is such a jumble of recipes that I'm having difficulty organizing my thoughts in order to write this review, (and that's not normal for me). So, I apologize for the long length of this review: I could not concisely sum up my thoughts. I think this review provides a lot of pertinent info, but feel free to stop reading after the next paragraph--it provides the reason why I rated it a high, (but still average) three stars.
One thing is perfectly clear to me, though, and it is not a good thing: When I want to make a one-pot meal, I want to make it in ONE pot (okay, maybe two if I want to brown an ingredient.) While there are many one-pot recipes here, there are way too many recipes that need separate pots and pans for all the steps involved to bring the dish to table. There are also an unfair amount of "one-pot" meals that require side dishes.
Having looked through many Williams-Sonoma cookbooks and owning quite a few that I picked up for a song at estate sales, I can say that this is not like the "normal", older, smaller Williams-Sonoma cookbooks. You know without even looking through it that it has a lot of recipes, which can be a good thing--or it can be a bad thing. What's messing with my brain is the fact that the recipes are arranged by month and day: There actually is a recipe for every day of the year. There are a few other W-S cookbooks, released in 2012, that are set up this way.)
The reason why a certain recipe is on a certain date is unclear. While there is some attempt made to pair seasonal vegetables and fruits to certain months, you are going to find those same ingredients in other months as well. And, (what I consider a major crime), you will find nonseasonal ingredients paired with seasonal ingredients.
