المراجعة التحريرية | Moments spent at LuLu's keep me connected to where I came from. I can drop my anchor in a booth by the water and savor a bowl of gumbo; for me there is more than fresh crabmeat, oysters, okra, shrimp, and file powder in that bowl. It contains the faces and memories of friends, family, and events that remind me of the child of the coast that I was and hope to always be. In this book, LuLu has gotten it all down on paper, with great recipes for food that comes with history. "Jimmy Buffett"" If this book wasn't any good, I'd have to lie about it because Lucy Buffett is my sister-in-law. But I am spared that pain by the glories Lucy brings to kitchen and table and, between the lines, a vision of the good life with all its highs and lows and more than occasional joys. If Woody Allen says life is about showing up, Lucy Buffett says hurl yourself into it. This book is a road map to good times. "Thomas McGuane"" |
