Can’t write much because I’m scrambling to write a 3-page paper for my Negotiations class, but my birthday gift from mom and dad just arrived. The story goes that my mother, the other day, said: “I want to get you a really nice pen for your birthday.” I replied: “WHAT?! Mom, if you’re going to spend money on a pen, I’d rather get a bunch of really good cookbooks.” Then I made her a list of the ones I wanted and told her just to get a few. Lo and behold, she bought them all!
In case the picture’s too hard to unscramble, they are:
– The French Laundry Cookbook!
– The Zuni Cafe Cookbook!
– Breads from The La Brea Bakery!
– Cooking By Hand!
– Slow Mediterranean Cooking!
I’m really excited and of course I’ll keep you up to date as I cook my way through them. Should only take 14 years. Ciao!

Please remind mom that my birthday is June 3. Let me know if she needs my new address.
Happy Bday…
I am lusting over your French Laundry Cookbook. Do we get reviews of said b-day cookbooks?
Enjoying your blog. Thanks!
