I have had this one on my shelf to read but there are so many others that I thought this might find a better home with my secret angel recipient who is a chef. This is the story about a woman who shows a family how much she cares through her food. I hope it is good!
It will be travelling very soon.

Synopsis: For years Francesca Campanile was the queen of her home, dispensing good food and sound advice in her Rhode Island kitchen.

I received this today from Dove-i-Libri. Thank you! I enjoyed meeting you, & I'm sure I'll enjoy the book (since I'm from RI & love to cook!)
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
Just finished this one yesterday. A very nice story - thanks for sharing! (Altho the author kind of has them all talking like Fonzerelli on Happy Days with that "Ayy!" bit he has all the Italian characters say. ;> )

This is making a return visit to our house! How funny to see old friends on their journeys around the world! I won't be taking it out, so back into the box it goes to continue its journey!

Picked up to read this afternoon when I needed something light. I am enjoying it so far. I've already read 65 pages.
What an enjoyable read!! Though I figured out the ending way before the book's end, I enjoyed this light pick me up read. I am going to lend it to my non-BC friend to enjoy.
Enjoy! My friend is going to read this book. I gave it to her tonight.
