The GirlAlive Cookbook
by Alana Muir and Lynette Olson


How, you may ask, can I do a fair review of the book I wrote? Well, I've decided to borrow a method from Mike Nelson's Movie Megacheese, which Mike Nelson used to review the movie he wrote and starred in, the MST3K movie. Namely, I will get myself so drunk I don't remember that I wrote The GirlAlive Cookbook, and then I'll review it. And I may hit myself in the head a few times for good measure. Here I go. I'll be back to review when I've had a few.

(returning a few hours later)

This book has a floppy paper cover. The front is brown and the back is yellow. The back says something about boobies. Boobies boobies boobies. Maybe boys will like it because they like boobies. What a peice of crap. There's a typo on the first page.

Thas weird. Someone put movie reccom recommmen suggestions with all the recipes. That's a lot of cookies. Why is there so much oatmeal? I like pie. Jello is so jiggly. Sammiches and wafflerts xsklnaio. oihnnadpfnchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Okay, so I seem to have passed out. I'm sober now and I see that the drunken review was maybe not such a swell idea. Perhaps instead I should just list a few recipes and then you'll think, "That sounds tasty," and you'll buy the book.

The GirlAlive Cookbook contains delicious recipes for:
  • Cheese Tumor
  • Hot Cocoa
  • Dilly Bread
  • Cheesy Biscuits
  • Hot Fudge Pudding Cake
  • Mashed Potato Fudge
  • Double Chocolate Cookies
  • Seven Layer Bars
  • Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • Strawberry Pretzel Gelatin
  • Apple Crisp
  • Bread Pudding
  • Egg Strata
  • Lasagna
  • Tater Tot Hot Dish
  • Grandma's Mock Chop Suey
  • Waikiki Meatballs
  • Elephant Stew
  • Pecan Pie
  • 7-Up Applesauce Salad
  • Gooey Buns
  • Sweet Po-Turkey Sammiches
  • Candied Yams
  • French Onion Soup

There are also recipes for hundreds of other things. And most recipes have some kind of silly note with them about the history of the recipe or whatever. And don't forget the very random movie recommendations with every recipe. It's the perfect way to make dinner and a movie.

Okay, so it's not exactly a fair and unbiased review. But if you've bought a copy, email me (my address is in the "about me" section you can get to through the button at the bottom of the page). I will post other people's reviews here once they are sent in. If you haven't bought a copy yet, you can do that at my online store.
