About the Book

This is a luscious book to savor if you love food and cooking. Elegant, spare haiku poems are accompanied by lavish photographs of food and food preparation. There are recipes in this book meant to be springboards for the imagination of the creative cook. A few "recipes" actually are composed of the 17 syllables of a haiku poem. Enjoy and savor this book.
About the Author: Ginny Tata-Phillips Ginny grew up in a family where spaghetti sauce did not come from a jar, soup did not come from cans and cookies were made from scratch. There was always sauce on the stove or stew in the crockpot or something freshly baked cooling on the counter. She tried to instill that love of fresh and healthy food in her daughters who were known to turn their noses up at cans of soup when they knew homemade chicken soup cured all ills! Now living in Spotsylvania, Virginia, on a Basset Plantation, Ginny continues to cook for her family and her dogs, as well as to grow lots of her own fruit and veggies and almost all of the herbs she uses in the efforts! These days if there is something baking in the oven, it is most likely dog biscuits baked with love! She enjoys making jams and jellies and canning the excess bounty from her garden. She wonders almost daily, if you cook something and put it in a jar, why is it called canning and not jarring? Diane Grindol Much to the surprise of her English teacher, Diane won the "Betty Crocker Award" in high school. That's thanks to what she learned at home from a mom who didn't know how to cook when she first got married. Mom was determined that all of the Grindol kids could cook, and encouraged experiments. The only time she regretted that was when Diane and best friend across the street, Charmaine, burned chocolate chip cookies in a newly cleaned oven. One of Diane's three majors in college was home economics, which was supposed to make her a better interior designer, along with art and design classes. Diane now walks dogs for a living. She loves to cook and bake for friends. Friend Ginny moved across the country, but these authors still collaborate through email and online editing to bring you the finest in haiku poems! We think Diane's English teacher would be proud of the way things turned out.
