She has a great, great voice and I loved so many of the dishes I've made from her cookbooks.traciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02443220334489489025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4002612879648972347.post-70977241234749950682010-07-27T21:00:39.570+02:002010-07-27T21:00:39.570+02:00another great cooking book:

It is very true, and talking about food is such a wonderful medium for storytelling. I just found an old Depression era cookbook called "Much Depends on Dinner" by Mary Grosvenor Ellsworth that is fascinating. Her voice is charming and chatty, and it all gives really interesting insights into the time period as well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4002612879648972347.post-17644607635741174182010-06-17T17:27:19.155+02:002010-06-17T17:27:19.155+02:00Homemade salad dressing is definitely the way to g...Homemade salad dressing is definitely the way to go with any salad.

I recently finished reading <i>Tender at the Bone</i>, a book by Ruth Reichl (who was the editor of <i>Gourmet</i> magazine until recently) and it has the wonderful voice of which you speak. It's the first part of her memoirs, and it's interspersed with recipes. One is a lovely potato salad, that was <a href="http://simplycooked.blogspot.com/2010/06/potato-salad.html" rel="nofollow">ingenious and delicious</a>.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435647248027246458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4002612879648972347.post-76945432976024901262010-06-12T17:59:19.686+02:002010-06-12T17:59:19.686+02:00These wonderful oldies are like a recipe handed do...These wonderful oldies are like a recipe handed down from your grandmother, or at least the next best thing.Julie Anne Rhodeshttp://jewelsfromtherovingstove.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4002612879648972347.post-14248364682687488692010-06-12T14:45:02.292+02:002010-06-12T14:45:02.292+02:00Thanks for the introduction to Miriam Ungerer.
