Now in trade paperback, A Homemade Life is a memoir composed of
recipes and stories from acclaimed blogger, Molly Wizenberg.
Molly's fresh and modern recipes--sometimes decedent, sometimes
healthful-- appeal to the growing number of people tired of the
processed foods who have become passionate about the art of cooking
and the joy of eating meals lovingly prepared with the best
ingredients. But the book's appeal comes as much from the recipes
as its truly remarkable writing. Wizenberg's food descriptions are
luscious: Double Chocolate Cupcakes with Ricotta, Bourbon, and
Orange Zest will always sound enticing, but when Molly describes
how "the soft dairy richness of the fresh cheese gains depth from
dark chocolate, and the chocolate's sincere, not-too-sweetness
borrows intrigue from the boozy ricotta" you can't help but head
straight to the kitchen to make them yourself. And unlike some
excellent food-bloggers, Molly writes elegant but accessible prose
that goes beyond the gustatory to access emotion. Her writing is
poignant without feeling cloying or obvious, and her novelist's
sense for pacing keeps you turning pages.
