- Summary
- "Linda Ellerbee's first two books were instant classics: "And So It Goes," and Move On. Now she takes us both farther afield and closer to home, in a memoir of food, travel, and personal (mis)adventure that brims with warmth, wit, uncommon honesty, and inspired storytelling ... and a few recipes as well." "In Vietnam, preconceptions collide with the soup ... In France, lust flares with the pate and dies with the dessert ... In Bolivia, a very young missionary finds her food flavored with hypocrisy ... While at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, an older woman discovers gorp is good, fear is your friend, and Thai chicken tastes best when you're soaked by rain and the Colorado River."--BOOK JACKET.
