NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - America's favorite self-taught cook
opens up about the most memorable moments of her life in this candid
memoir-inspired cookbook featuring 125 all-new recipes.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BUZZFEED AND FOOD
NETWORK
"No matter the recipe, each of us changes a dish by our own preparation
of it. It's the same with stories--once you put them out there, readers
get to interpret them and be affected by them as they will. Ultimately,
it's my hope that this book leaves the reader with that quiet smile we
all get after we eat a favorite comfort food. Basically, I'm going for
the afterglow of a big bowl of spaghetti."--from the Introduction
As her fiftieth birthday approached, the woman who taught America how to
get dinner on the table, fast, started thinking not just about what to
cook that night, but how her passion for food and feeding people had
developed over her first fifty years.
