Your excellent review has convinced me to read it. It also reminds me of this book called Kitchen by a Japanese author. <BR/><BR/>I agree that other than nourishing the body, food can be a therapeutic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-73996009621226574382009-03-14T05:22:00.000-04:002009-03-14T05:22:00.000-04:00Bellezza - having a love of cooking just makes the...Bellezza - having a love of cooking just makes the book extra special.

It will most definitely land in my top reads for the year.
