Your frittata looks wonderful. It makes me wish I'd had this for dinner instead.

What a great story. Both of my grandmothers lived with us growing up. My maternal grandmother and I would spend many days in the kitchen making everything from scratch. Without a doubt it was through her that I became passionate about cooking. I've decided it must skip a generation since my mom has never had much interest in it. I just wish I had written down everything we made. My children love cooking now as well from cooking with me. I hope they'll keep with the tradition

Your photos are wonderful. I wish I'd had one of my grandmother and I sitting at our kitchen table as we cook.

I've had a grilled romaine salad before, loved it and duplicated it. But your salad sounds positiviely outrageous! I love that you marinate so to speak the lettuce first in balsamic and honey that sounds heavenly giving it a wonderful sweet flavor to start with. I would use goat cheese and pecans since we're not fans of blue cheese. I'm printing this and definitely making it - maybe even tonight.

By the way, I love your book. I use it all the time. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

This is absolutely beautiful and although there are quite a few steps it really looks simple. I'm looking forward to making this and giving it as a gift. Thank you for sharing.
