These are the expression of the grieving heart in a series of essays, spoken in warm, friendly, intelligent manner without the trace of self absorption (you'll feel like she's talking to you like a long time friend). Those light hearted lines deliver poignant, endearing, heart felt message on love, family, relationships and the stuff these things are made of. Interwoven with simple, easy quick, delicious, homemade recipes generously shared along with the memories. Unlike those "30 mins meal", "semi-homemade", recipes spinned, whisked and made popular by celebrity cooks that screamed convenience from the tv and the bookstore shelves, these concoctions and formulae have depths and meanings and souls besides being tried and true; crafted to perfection with simple honest ingredients. They definitely speak louder to me, than those of shallow fast solutions from cans and boxes which will meet you half way to deliver results in bullet train speed, but lacking in character and substance. They cannot take place of the fulfilling stories. Winzenberg strong style of delivery is a page turner.
