Are We Having Any Fun Yet?: The Cooking & Partying Handbook by Sammy Hagar. I'm not a huge Sammy Hagar fan, but this book is a fun read. Great recipes, too. It explains his rock career from Montrose to Van Halen to Cabo Wabo, which I didn't really know but found it a great read. The man loves food much more than he loves Eddie Van Halen.
Blood, Bones & Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef by Gabrielle Hamilton. given my aversion to the idea of ever going back to NYC, I will probably never visit her restaurant, but I loved her coming of age through food story. Speaking of New York, there also is....
Eat Me: The Food and Philosophy of Kenny Shopsin by Kenny Shopshin and Carolynn Carreno Described as "most profound and profane cookbook you’ll ever read" and that is true. I loved everything about this book and would be afraid to go to his place, but he died last fall, so maybe he wouldn't yell at me. So maybe I could go to NYC again.
After all that big city life.....how about.....
The Yellow Farmhouse Cookbook by Christopher Kimball. This book is not anything like Cooks Illustrated or Milk Street, but reads like his old prose he used to write in his letters from Vermont.
