" "That point of view, " she says, "turns home cooking and the pleasures of the table into a wonderful adventure. ' So, appetit, and enjoy the adventures that this wonderful book provides.
I actually ordered this on a whim while ordering other books for my son. It was a small book but filled with some great stories and wonderful recipes! I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys Julia Child and wants to add to their collection of good, solid cookbooks!
