“I don't want to call Jess, because we have bigger fish to fry than to chit-chat about my issues. I'm so upset with her right now that fried fish doesn't even sound good to me. Although once in Calabria, William and I had the most perfect fried sardines, silvery melt-in-your-mouth crisp and not at all fishy.

And an earthen pitcher of vino rosso, made by the contadini locali.” Food For ThoughtItalian FoodFried Fish Book:Slim to None Source: Slim to None

I made a fantastic peach tart, with black raspberry puree on a crispy bed of buttery phyllo dough. Served with a dollop of crème anglaise.” Food For ThoughtPeachesTart Book:Slim to None Source: Slim to None
