I'm only on page 9 and I'm in love. "Undercooking is a justifiable reaction to the 1950s tendency to cook vegetables to collapse. But the pendulum has swung too far." AMEN.

pickI‘ve been in love with this book since I first learned of it years ago, and I‘ve given it as a gift more than once and recommended it widely. Minor detail: I‘d never actually read it! 😆 But now that‘s fixed. Thankfully, it‘s very worthy of my advance love - just an excellent, intelligent, practical approach to home cooking and to making the most of every ingredient. And the writing = 😍! Every bit as brilliant as the content.
Oh, how I love taking my car to the (located-two-blocks-from-the-beach) mechanic. 🌊📚☀️
I haven‘t eaten yet this morning and I just read the chapter on bread, and more specifically bread toppings & soups. Good grief I‘m hungry now!
Trying to follow my mug‘s instructions on this foggy and temporarily quiet Sunday morning. And FINALLY digging into this book, which has been on my TBR and bookshelf for years.
Virtual favorite books shelf by my niece. Couldn't fit the end book in my photo (An Everlasting Meal.) #happylittletrees
“Only by tasting can you learn to connect the decisions you make with their outcomes.”
pickThere is no single "cookbook" that has been more influential in empowering me to embrace and enjoy the process of making food than this one. A book I read/re-read constantly and one I press into everyone's hands (well, a second copy - keep your paws off mine!)
What a lovely book with descriptions of food that fill all five senses and lots of tips on how to use every thing!
pickI started this ages ago, flew through it, and then set it down in the last chapter, not wanting it to end. I finally did finish it and what a treat. Adler has had me craving olives for months now. She writes about the simplest of food with sensual elegance. A wonderful read that I'm sure I'll come back to over and over. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Ecclesiastical writers on the subject point out that in the beginning there was water, all life proceeded from water, there was water in Eden, water when we fell, then the slate got cleaned with it. Water breaks, and out we come."
#Allisnotlost @Liberty Since I started my job as teen librarian, I've been terribly absent from Litsy. Now that I'm checking books out at work instead of buying as many, I end up returning the book before I've posted! 😭 But I see that cat stickers are a thing now... How can I pass up the opportunity to shrink and hide cat stickers? Also, this book is lovely. A medication on cooking resourcefully. ❤❤
Day26 #SeasonsReadings2016 #bookishgifts I did not get many bookish gifts this year but I was happy to get these two foodie books from a good friend who shares my love of cooking. Perfect as I had to return "Kitchens of the Great Midwest" to the library unread a couple of months ago and it has been checked out ever since and I have also been wanting to read "An Everlasting Meal." #foodiebooks
I love reading books about food but this one made me change the way I approach meals. It makes me hungry every time I think about it. #somethingforsept
