Doppelganger has a nice batch of reviews of books about food. MKF Fisher getting more props is always a good thing. I am still working through Gastronomical Me. It is a slow journey and totally worth taking. Thanks Big D for reminding me...

Fisher knew a few things about sadness, some kind of weight leeches through some of her essays. Perhaps I should pull it off the shelf. I just ate some pasta with red sauce that I made myself and the saltiness somehow balanced me for a moment. The time it took me to make it was time I was doing something positive and nuturing for myself and my family (B) and not being eaten alive by external circumstances.

Got any good receipes?
