Feed Yourself and Your Friends

Even if your college-bound teen is as adept in the kitchen as s/he is with an iPod, this book is a must-have. And if the kitchen has been terra incognita for the past 18 years, not to worry. College Cooking starts from scratch and deposits the reader/cook in practically gourmet territory, with a dash of practical advice and humor along the way. This is the perfect cookbook to have when arriving in a sparsely-equipped kitchen with very little money and very little cooking experience (although the finished dishes would never reveal that the cook was a newbie). From an easy-to-understand rundown of basic ingredients and cooking techniques (cooking asparagus is different from cooking pasta or frying with oil) to necessary equipment and stocking a pantry, the book has the young cook off and running.

But wait until you scan the list of recipes. ''Survival Cooking'' lists incredibly-easy-to-make and easily-reheated things like Chicken and Rice, Baked Penne Pasta with Italian Sausage, and Barbeque Chicken Pita Pizza. Then there are stir-fry, curry, wraps, and various other ethnic recipes as well as ''Food for the Masses'' and menus for parties. The list goes on and on. I'm hungry just paging through this book and I just ate a huge lunch.

Even if you don't know a college-bound student or someone just setting up an apartment, College Cooking is a fine addition to your own cookbook collection. I will be getting a copy for myself!

Canadian Shipping:
We ship Canadian orders via international surface or air. Payment must be in U.S. funds. The order recipient will be responsible for any duty/custom charges when the package arrives in Canada.

Surface Mail rates:
Orders under $100.00---our regular shipping rates
Orders over $101.00---13% of the subtotal

International Shipping:

We hope to offer you international ordering online soon. In the meantime, you may call 619-670-5200, fax 619-670-5203, or email us at customerservice@chinaberry.net with your order to find out what your shipping charge would be. If you are having your order shipped internationally, UPS requires that you include a phone number for them to contact for delivery information.

We ship international orders (except Canadian) via UPS International Air courier only. While this ensures your order will arrive very quickly (3-5 business days), it is also very expensive. (Shipping generally begins at about $50.00 for a one pound package and goes up with weight.)

As an affordable alternative, many of our international customers have their orders shipped to a friend or relative in the U.S who will forward the orders on to them.

Sales Tax

We collect sales tax based on the "ship to" address of your order. We are required to collect sales tax in California, which is where we are located. If you're shipping to California, please include tax as follows:

Calculate 7.75% of the total of your merchandise.

We don't collect tax on gift certificates.

Sales Tax Exemption

We are required by law to collect sales tax on any orders going to California. If you are a tax-exempt organization, we need to have a copy of the Exemption Certificate issued to you by the State of California on file before you can order tax-free. You may either mail or fax (619-670-5203) us a copy of your certificate. We ask that you place your orders by mail, fax (619-670-5203) or phone. If you are ordering by phone, please call our customer service line, 1-888-481-6744, between 6am and 6pm Pacific time.
