Once again, my thanks to the great creative team who works behind the scenes to ensure that my books achieve the highest degree of excellence in editing, photography, styling and design: all the folks at PageWave Graphics — Andrew Smith, Joseph Gisini, Kevin Cockburn and Daniella Zanchetta — for their great design work; my editor, Sue Sumeraj, who consistently notices things that I miss; Kate Bush and Charlene Erricson for their talented styling; and last, but certainly not least, Mark Shapiro and Colin Erricson for their beautiful photographs, which make my recipes look delicious.
Special thanks to Barbara Selley, RD, whose work on the diabetes-specific aspects of this book has been amazingly thorough and consistently professional. And thanks to the volunteer health professionals at the CDA who reviewed the book.
I’d also like to thank Audrey King and Jennifer MacKenzie for their diligent help with recipe testing and all my friends and neighbors who gallantly tuck in to my culinary creations, even those that miss the mark, and provide thoughtful comments that are always useful in fine-tuning the end result.
Thanks also to Bob Dees and Marian Jarkovich at Robert Rose for their consistent commitment to ensuring that my books are well received in the marketplace.
