review 1: Wandering in a grocery store, Flinn voyeuristically peers into a stranger's shopping cart and is horrified to see piles of processed crazy, without any real food in sight. She decides then and there to teach a cooking school geared toward people lacking basic skills and knowledge, in order to equip them to make better decisions. There are lots of practical tips and tricks, and of course, a few recipes. It's a fun read as she describes the lessons and the participants.
review 2: I loved this book!! It's not a novel, but stories of real people and their issues around food, cooking, and their own identities. You really realize the importance of food and family in this book. How we eat is so connect to our family, histories, and traditions, but we can call choose ... moreto change or grow how we address food and eating. I could related to several of the women in the study, that the book takes us through. What an adventure and I would so love a cooking experience like that to happen to me!! I learned some great recipes and tips, too - not to mention got the answer to my question of the difference between stock and broth! Great recipes throughout, too! Read it while sipping wine - less
