Sorry, I mis-spoke in my excitement at having finally secured myself a
copy after so long.

No actual recipes so far as I've been able to spot in the headlong
rush to re-read it, but the names themselves go straight to the
salivary glands and turn the taps on ;-)

The concoction Sunshine guzzles before her...mission...is one such:
"Bitter Chocolate Death". You can almost taste it just from the name.
The various muffins and cookies she makes are named in similar
fashion, and I would love to find out whether they could ever taste as
good in Real Life as off the page.
