Book Preview:

#1 I was always an avid reader, but I loved the ads for exotic ingredients in The Gourmet Cookbook. I loved the stories, and I loved the ads. I loved the way the author wrote about real life.

#2 I was amazed at how my father, who had never spoken a word to anyone in New York, could speak German so fluently. He told me that when he arrived in 1926, all his German relatives came down to the boat to meet him.

#3 I loved walking around my hometown and eating the different foods from the different stalls. I never thought of food as a way to make money, but it eventually became my career.

#4 I sold enough stories to be able to spend a month in Thailand exploring unfamiliar flavors. I wished the articles were for Gourmet, but now when I picked up the magazine, I saw that the adventurous spirit that had thrilled me as a child was gone.
