I Remember Mama

About the Book

I Remember Mama is a collection of the recipes of three generations of "good eaters". It is about our family brought together in the kitchen and around the holiday table. It is about tradition and celebrations about abundance and love. It is about our past, our present and our optimism for the future. Most important of all, it is about the women who have shaped our palate and our lives. Their zest for living flavors every day and is why I Remember Mama.

About the Author

This is Elinor?s first book and given the long time it has taken to write this one (12 years) this may well be the last.

She is a self-proclaimed ?foodie?, though food ?magician? may be a more apt description. She has been changing high calorie foods to low calories and carbs for the last 40 years. She has made an art form of transforming half-cup portions of cottage cheese into voluminous proportions never before seen. She is most often found in her kitchen performing ?food miracles? with her trusty sidekick, the food processor, whirring noisily beside her.

Written by the author (since she has no agent to write ?glowing words of praise?). Also, the picture of the author is not that recent?but if it hadn?t taken so long to write this book it would have been.
