Chef O’ Claus (file under Merci Chef!)

I received two presents wrapped wonderfully from Chef this week. He looked at me as he handed them to me and said that I couldn’t open them until Christmas. He then relented and said that I could open the smaller one first. He wrote on the present; “For the intellectual Chef.”

I got around to opening it yesterday and was thrilled to see that it was “Food – A Culinary History.” Another encyclopedic volume to add to my growing culinary library. I’ve started reading it and from the introduction can tell you that I will have many a post to write about it.

Garrison Keller once said; “A book is a gift you can open again and again.” And I plan to.

Are you dreaming big and inspired?

A la prochaine
