Just ordered The Soup Peddler's Slow and Difficult Soups, by David Ansel

"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."  -George Bernard Shaw, Man and Superman, Act 1

 

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

A king can stand people's fighting, but he can't last long if people start thinking. -Will Rogers, humorist

My name's Gregg and I'm (also) a cookbook addict. What I don't spend on cookbooks, or the new SVS, goes to the lumber yard for materials for new book shelves. Fortunately my wife still believes this is better for me than crack.

I must confess, I was drooling over the Ottolenghi books on Amazon yesterday. So tempting, especially considering how much I loved the restaurant when I was in London and that I am starting to think about spring produce. I don't think I'll have the time/energy for a full blown veggie garden this year, so there will certainly be money I save from that...(and with all the great local farmstands there will be no shortage of produce.)

Coming here for strength!

Plus one from from St.V de P: Better Homes and Gardens: Recipes from Prizewinning Cooks. Curious...there are no front pages missing and yet there is no date and no ISBN.

Found it on Amazon.com. 1986.
