I know she's not terribly fashionable but Delia Smith's Complete Cookery Course has an achievable recipe for every occasion and so I guess that my vote has to go to that. From a fun perspective, though, I love Anthony Bourdain's Les Halles Cookbook (and if you haven't read it, his 'Cook's Tour' is a fantastic food-not-cooking read) and also the hard to find French Tarts by Linda Dannenberg. Each tart is presented with a slightly saucy description of an accompanying lady and always brings a smile when looking up a recipe.
