An enlightening and entertaining anthology of foodie facts, history, quotes, hints and tips. Take that pan off the cooker and settle down to learn about where in the world the annual monkey banquet is held at which gourmet chefs prepare a feast for pampered primates, why Eliza Acton's Modern Cookery for Private Families was such a runaway success in 1845, the science and theory behind the many different ways you can prevent an onion from making you cry, and the unbeatable health-giving properties of fruit.

#fallintoreading #inyourmug

Strong coffee in my mug this morning. It's my special Macys Thanksgiving parade mug that I got at the 34th St. Macys in NYC. My cook books are the only thing I'll be reading today.

#BookNBrunch! I got to have @MrBook home with me today because the library is closed due to the snow & ice storm! 😃 So I made him a nice brunch before he goes out to shovel. Cheesy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, corned beef hash, tater tots, toasted buttered peasant bread, blueberry lemonade, and a hot organic Rooibos Chai tea with milk & honey. 🥛🍯 Yum! This has been another presentation of: #MrBookBookBabeKitchen. Happy reads & happy eats! 🍳🥓

Wilkie Gee @MrBook is a lucky man! 6y
