Bite Size
Authors and sisters Julie Albert, who only got in the kitchen when she had a family to feed, and Lisa Gnat, a skilled chef, pulled together 175 recipes. This will be on the top of my shelf just for laughs, but the recipes look good, too. Tongue-in-cheek-titled chapters include “Spoon me,” devoted to steamy soups; […]
