What is this about?

What a feel good feeling... in the kitchen!

The most important room in a house. Traditionnaly the only heated room in a farm where we meet to talk, eat and of course to cook!

Personally the kitchen, more accurately the table is the social centre of the ecosystem called a family. Family of 1,2,3,4,5,6 ... family with or without kids, with or without dogs....

Open kitchen, closed kitchen, inside, outside, on wheels, fully furbished, with electric oven, wooden oven, micro-wave.... So long tasty dishes are coming out... everybody has it's kitchen style!

But what is the connection to reading?
Food for the spirit! We need food for the body and also fuel for the soul. Around the table we share the bread and learn to socialise. What we have been reading nourishes the discussions. 

The ultimate wedding between the kitchen and literature?
The recipe book!!!

This blog is not about recipebook! I might just mention here and there a nice food-book.

The books I describe touched my soul, interested my brain, made me happy, angry, I liked reading them.

My list might seem "average", classic literature frightens me, sounds to complicated... so I keep trying, sometimes with a good surprise or not....

All the tastes are in the nature, we can love them or hate them.

Everything is good to start a discussion .... around a good table.
