love in a dish

about a year ago, in broadway books, i stumbled upon an interesting little book called "love in a dish" by an mfk fisher.  having no idea who this was but being immediately impressed by and drawn to the writing, i put it back on the shelf.  this weekend i found the book again in a completely different bookstore.  i should have listened to my gut and bought it, for when i got home, the last copy had been sold by our local bookstore.  but this led me on a quest for her other books, one, which i bought, outlining their stay in my favorite city, aix-en-provence!  when i looked up more about her, i learned that she has authored dozens of books and is known in the cooking world as the grandest of food writers!  fisher, 1908-1992, ranks with julia child and james beard in terms of gastronomic delights.  now, next time i find "love in a dish", i will buy it on the spot!
