  <about><![CDATA[Kathleen Flinn is the author of The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry, a memoir with recipes about her experiences at the famed Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. 

At 36, Flinn returned from vacation to find that her corporate job had been eliminated. Ignoring her mothers advice that she get another job immediately or &quot;never get hired anywhere ever again,&quot; Flinn instead cleared out her savings and moved to Paris to pursue her life dream of studying French cuisine in Paris. Beyond the kitchens, she discovers what she really wants from life -- and falls deeply in love along the way. 

Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love calls it 'a really lovely book; engaging, intelligent and surprisingly suspenseful.'
