Kathy Hickman, corporate director of lifestyles events for Harrah's Entertainment, travels to the company's properties across the country quite a lot -- which means she eats at the company's properties quite a lot. But she didn't think most people were aware of how many good restaurants Harrah's has nationwide.
Hickman said the idea came up during talks with a literary agent she'd worked with in the past: "We should do a cookbook. There's too many great restaurants in our company. We need to get them in one location, in one place."

New cookbook contains recipes from Harrah's properties
Today in The Seattle Times, you'll find our annual Holiday Cuisine section, offering turkey tips, wine ideas and a wide world of recipes, including some of my time-honored favorites (like the cranberry sauce with rum and sour cherries I make every Thanksgiving) as well as Savory Chicken and Bacon "Cupcakes" with Tabasco Cream Cheese Frosting (a Kathy Casey newbie I'm hoping to try this year).
You'll also find a seafood gumbo recipe from that sassy New Orleanian Poppy Tooker, and my latest "favorite": a recipe for carne adovada -- the dried chiles-fueled pork stew I couldn't get enough of when I visited New Mexico this summer. Like the gumbo we serve at home each Christmas Day, that adovado (full recipe here) is one of those great one-pot dishes perfect for holiday parties and potlucks. Never tried it? Why wait?

As a new bride living in Tampa, Jessica Segarra wanted to make her husband, Jorge, happy. She didn't know how to cook, but she did have a bunch of new pots and pans she picked up at their wedding reception.
"I decided I was going to figure out how use these really expensive gifts," she says. "I found I really loved it."
In 2008, she started a blog called The Novice Chef (thenovicechefblog.com) to track the new recipes she tried. She'd never written a blog before, but inexperience didn't stop her.
