    <body><![CDATA[Laurie Colwin's Home Cooking books are the standard (well my standard) that all other cooking essay books are measured against.  This one is pretty good - the recipes are intriguing (I've already earmarked several to try).  The best essays involved the author's memories of and stories about her father.  The Chapter titled &quot;The Mottling&quot; had me weeping.  When the author gets to planning her wedding, I found myself skipping pages ... reading about someone else's wedding is like hearing in great detail about someone's dream ... eh, not so much.  The writing is fresh and lively.  I look forward to reading more from this author (thankfully she has a blog!  Yay!).]]></body>
