My favorite food writer...

My favorite food writer is Laurie Colwin. I plan on eventually reading all of her "non-food" novels, but until then I highly recommend her to anyone else who, like me, loves to read and really loves to read about food. She is excellent. Unfortunately she's also dead, which makes me quite sad because I would have happily read every food book she ever wrote for all of eternity (she's that good). But hey, don't take my word for it: Her two food books are Home Cooking, A Writer in the Kitchen, and More Home Cooking, A Writer Returns to the Kitchen.
