Description of this Book
Betty and her friend FFiona love cooking. The trouble is, they are both so useless at it that their families make themselves ill just to avoid their meals, because their meals would make them even more ill. It isn't that their families are too kind to tell the girls how bad their cooking is - they actually tell them all the time. But Betty and Ffiona don't believe them, and now the girls are planning to open Transylvania Waters's first gourmet restaurant. Queen Mordonna forbids them ...unless they can prove their cooking skills by winning TV's most popular cooking contest. Will they poison all the judges, or will they triumph and bring their 'interesting' creations to the discerning population?
