Another Savory Read
When I was making my list of savory summer reads, I completely forgot about Kathleen Flinn’s great memoir, The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry, until I was looking at the upcoming Bookmarks schedule. Bookmarks is an annual book festival put on by the Junior League. Flinn’s book is about her studies at Paris’ Le Cordon Bleu, the famous cooking school - oh yeah, she enrolled there after she got hacked from her corporate job (in London, so let’s not feel too sorry for her). Le Cordon Bleu has definitely gone commercial in recent years - there are branches all over the world. But the Paris school is still the mother ship (Julia Child went here). This is a book about self-discovery, love and self-re-invention.
Bookmarks is Sept. 13 at Bethabara Park.
