My grandmother was a private chef before I was born so I learned a lot about cooking from her. She could use the most humble of cooking utensils and cookware and come out with the most amazing food. I learned from her that good food owes everything to the best ingredients and nothing to special gadgets.Teslacahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12373515167766930918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2673319381347063255.post-22077849263568282582011-12-08T11:33:18.123-05:002011-12-08T11:33:18.123-05:00Would also love to win.

Before the last tray left the oven, we'd start sneaking still-warm cookies from the countertop. We often ate them so quickly that one year, Grandma hid the cookies to save some for Christmas Day. Christmas came and went and our visit ended, with no cookies. It turns out she'd done such a good job of hiding them that she didn't find them until months later!<br />Rachel (travelingspoonblog@gmail.com)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16811452871978016615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2673319381347063255.post-71153034562973697342011-12-04T09:25:31.143-05:002011-12-04T09:25:31.143-05:00I fell in love with just the title of this book. ...I fell in love with just the title of this book.
