She Always Wore an Apron: Tales of My Mother's Mid-Century Cooking and Kitchens

Meer over het boek

For most of us, we are not what we eat. Rather, we are formed by memories of food made in the kitchens of our childhood. A recent dinner guest commented on my apron. "Old school," he said. My guest's comment triggered thoughts of my mother during my mid-century childhood. This book highlights aspects of my mother's cooking and kitchens which seem antiquated, interesting, or even amusing today, fifty to seventy years hence.
