I did want to share this link to an article about food writing among other things. I have an unfinished cook book project, and an unfinished memoir project, and found myself enthralled by the talk of the trend of merging the two. It's an intriguing idea that I've been thinking about all afternoon. I haven't read this book, or any of his others. Does anybody have any opinions?

Food and memoir together is a great idea. I even love novels where we know how much the characters think about food and what they chose to ea and how they chose to prepare it. I think about food all the time and believe food must be a wonderful way to approach understanding somebody's life.
