Reseña del libro "Memories: Recipes from Calloway Corners, Louisiana (en Inglés)"
Empty for many years, the house at what would become Calloway Corners, Louisiana became the birthplace of the fictitious Calloway sisters; Mariah, Jo, Tess and Eden of the Harlequin romance novels, each named for one of the sisters. The house was used on the cover art of each of the four novels. Fiction became fact on February 2, 1993 when Calloway Corners, Louisiana became a "real town" and a bed & breakfast inn. At last, here is a cookbook from Calloway Corners Bed & Breakfast, named for the once fictitious town, which includes recipes (original and borrowed), quotes from the novels and elsewhere, history, sage advice, tales of romance, and photographs to delight, charm and bore. This is not a "healthy eating" recipe book! It is intended to impart to the user a history of and taste for a variety of foods; comfort, unique, gourmet, common and uncommon, that they would not otherwise have. The many deserts have a common theme; richness and goodness. The many other recipes also have a common theme; just dang good eating! So, if you want to combine the tasty variety of recipes in this book with healthy eating; prepare them for special occasions which will give you the opportunity to impress friends, family, neighbors and "angels unaware". A meal to impress is about a sumptuous menu, enticing presentation, music appropriate for the occasion, refreshing drinks and the right ambiance. Like a precious gift, preparing a delicious meal is about making people feel extra special. With just the right combination of ambiance and culinary delights, you too can create a memorable, delicious, and sometimes romantic experience. Some of the best stories, expressions of the heart and romances have been shared over a meal. From suppers around grandma's kitchen table to romantic, candle-light dinners, or the "last supper" Jesus had with his disciples, food has played, and continues to play, a central role in the most significant events in our lives. A shared table is a shared life. Many a meal has begun with a stranger and ended with a friend. And, sometimes.....to a romance!A Word for Autumn by A.A. Milne"Season of mists and mellow celery, then let it be. A pat of butter underneath the bough, a wedge of cheese, a loaf of bread and-Thou."
