This book was recommended to me by my book club friends. This is a perfect book for book loving foodies! Mix one dry sense of humor, a dollop or two of nostalgia, a large dose of insight, a handful of appreciation, and a penchant for honesty, and you end up with this delectable morsel of a book! It is impossible to listen to these sexy descriptions of food without wanting to cook and eat your way through this book. So be warned,(cont in comments)
