And they’ll relate to the joy that food can bring, which emanates from each page.” —Booklist“Expressed in both free verse and rhyme, poems in myriad forms invite readers into the state of attention required for both cooking and living a thoughtful life … An inventive and artfully composed volume.” —Publishers Weekly
