Based On A True Story

I jumped at the chance to get this book from my library. I’ve been interested in books by Marcus Samuelsson since I read his memoir, Yes, Chef. (If you aren’t familiar with his story, he was born in Kenya and […]

This isn’t a new cookbook but my library electronic book catalog suggested it to me so I decided to give it a try. If I had to pick one cuisine to eat exclusively for the rest of time, I probably […]

Yesterday I talked about wanting to tell more people about the products that helped me lose weight.  When you sign up to be able to sell products, they tell you to have a party and invite your friends.  That would […]

Back in April I went to a party that a coworker was throwing for Arbonne.  I’d never heard of the company but I went to be supportive.  The company has several lines of products including skin care and nutrition.  At […]

Back on April 17, I wrote about starting the Arbonne 30 Days to Healthy Living challenge. I was stuck at a weight I didn’t like and I couldn’t get under.  I was ready to do something radical. Now, a month […]

When we decided to go on a Viking River Cruise the aspect I was most worried about was the food. The husband has life-threatening food allergies and I’m a vegetarian who prefers to eat mostly vegan. We can be hard […]

Our country this month for Eat the World is New Zealand.  My first thought about New Zealand cuisine was lamb.  Obviously that was not going to be on the menu so my second thought was kiwi. Of course, kiwis aren’t […]

I know I’m late to the party but I just watched The Great British Baking Show on Netflix. Prior to starting watching this I would have said that I liked baked goods.  Cupcakes are yummy.  I’m a fan of dessert […]

  This month’s country for Eat the World is Sweden.  A few things came to mind when I first thought of Swedish food: Meatballs, fish, and things I don’t eat Lucia bread that my Swedish aunt used to bring to […]

  Welcome to September’s Foodies Read Link Up Deb’s review of The Family Tree is our drawing winner for August. Everyone who links up a review of a book about food this month will be placed in a drawing for […]

Welcome to the March Link Up Time really is flying.  We had a lot of great posts in February. Our first giveaway was chosen from the links in January and February. The winner of the book SeaSoned for posting a […]

You guys were amazing in January! We had 27 posts linked up.  If you haven’t checked out all the great reviews (and food inspired by the books) go back and look.  You can also find links to all the posts with […]

Welcome to Foodies Read 2016!   Do you love reading books about food?  Do you want to find more recommendations of books to read and to sing the praises of books that you’ve loved? You’re in the right place.  Starting […]

It actually is serious. We aren’t just being difficult. Before I started dating a person with food allergies I had no idea how serious they were.  I’d hear stories about parents freaking out over peanuts and sigh.  I had a […]

I recently decided to go have myself checked out by a naturopathic doctor.  I didn’t have any specific ailments but just wanted a check up.  I filled out a long questionnaire and had some hair and blood testing done. I […]

Lately I’ve been reading a lot of food memoirs about people who are really into food. The more offbeat the food is, the better. They love their offal and bone marrow. I like food memoirs but I’d like to read […]
