Filed under: Books, On the Blogs, AmericaThere are few things in life that I love more than a personal essay that creates a sense of companionship between the writer and the reader. An essay that shines light on perfect details and invites you into a space that feels intimate, revealing and fascinating. And if it also bears relationship to food/cooking/eating, I become nearly inarticulate with bliss. I stumbled across such an essay on Culinate that hits everyone of these notes and left me wanting more. It is an excerpt from the recently released anthology Alone in the Kitchen With an Eggplant called Table for One and was written by Erin Ergenbright. It reads quickly and leaves behind a feeling of quiet appreciation for food and the time it takes to eat it. Definitely worth the few minutes it takes to read it through.Permalink Email this Comments
