Rebecca of Rebecca Reads is hosting a Spice of Life Challenge that hits me at just the right time because the focus is on books about food and I have been in the mood for books about food ever since my sister started culinary school in January.
Find the detail of the challenge here. I have opted to participate at the "sampler" level. My choices for each of the four categories (or, should I say, "courses") are:
Cookbook: The Silver Palate Cookbook by Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins (which overlaps with my "silver" choice for the Colorful Reading Challenge)
Nonfiction: Au Revoir to All That by Michael Steinberger
Memoirs/Essays: Julie & Julia by Julie Powell
Fiction: The Last Chinese Chef by Nicole Mones (because I really, really liked her Lost in Translation book)

This looks like a fun challenge. Good luck with it!
ReplyDeleteI had fun checking out your sister's blog...love the name. I bookmarked it so I can go back and read more when I have a chance. I joined this challenge too but only have a couple of books picked out. Great list and happy eating...I mean reading:)
ReplyDeleteGreat list of books! I'm so excited to hear about all these books.
