Summary: What's for Supper?
Comment: No, this is not a cookbook. Rather, it is a collection of stories about interesting characters linked by food and cooking. In part it is autobiographical, because pieces of the author's own life can be found there.
I've tried to select my favorite chapter but can only narrow it down to two: "The Early Times" and "The Catfish Chowder Event".
"The Early Times" chapter is autobiographical and spans the '20s and '30s, whence the author grew from a toddler to a college student. This chapter is rich with the flavors of life and living in rural Texas. I found myself nodding and smiling at those pages as I recognized the people and the language and the customs portrayed there.
"The Catfish Chowder Event" chapter recounts a single event in the author's later life, which results in his second marriage. As a Leon Hale fan and faithful reader of his column in The Houston Chronicle, I found the description of his wife's (in his column he refers to her only as his "Partner") background and education and social standing fascinating because it is so different from his own. He has never shared this information with readers of his column.
There are, of course, recipes for dishes that you will surely want to try. When you finish this book, you will put it down, lean back in your chair, close your eyes, and smile as you savor all of the passages you have tasted.
