My Reading List for November on France






I want to share with you, three terrific books about France that I am reading at the moment:
Paris: Wish You Were Here! ( Christopher Meason) is the ultimate postcard from the most romantic and glamorous city in the world. Filled with writings, facts, and trivia about this most sought-after destination for lovers, writers, artists, fashionistas, and travelers, Paris captures the best of the City of Lights.


A Table in the Tarn is Orlando Murrin's intimate account of how he painstakingly transformed the simple 19th-century Manoir de Raynaudes into a celebrated gastronomic destination. Beautifully written and photographed, this cookbook and food memoir includes more than 80 recipes for the Anglo-French dishes that have brought the Manoir acclaim, along with tales of the extraordinary people and gorgeous countryside of the unspoiled Tarn Valley


Savoring France: Recipes and Reflections on French Cooking. The latest entry in this Williams-Sonoma series provides a wide-ranging,look at Gallic cuisine. YUM...my dream book!
