I just saw that this was on Russ Parson's top ten list for the LA Times. "At Grandmother's Table" edited by Ellen Perry Berkeley. Has anyone read it?

Thank you for this post.

Found rave reviews and excerpt on
www.amazon.com

My grandmother got me interested in cooking. She cooked on a ship from May to October. The rest of the year, she lived with us and did most of the cooking. I would grab a stool and watch every move...and lick the spoon and/or bowl.

I have such fond memories of my "nana"!

Going to find book now!

Has anyone read 'The Making of a Pastry Chef"? I haven't and was considering ordering it online.

I've looked at it several times...I just bought it last Tuesday. With Easter coming I haven't had a chance to read much...but I'm hoping it will be enjoyable!
