rinne recently turned me on to
by former athenian, tamar adler. it is a really inspiring and intimate approach to food. a couple of years ago i read the book
and i loved it so much. this is the type of book i have been craving.
the other day we made lunch out at our friends mandy and steve's farm. i brought along a basket of fresh vegetables that i picked up from woodland gardens and this book. this gratin recipe was a simple one and sounded delicious......and it was.
give it a try!
