“It’s amazing how the smell of good food cooking helps people to talk to each other about real, important, interpersonal things. That’s because good food smells help people to trust that they're in safe, caring territory. “

Devoted mother, teacher, columnist, author, and award-winning radio/television host Lauren Groveman doesn’t just write cookbooks. She has a mission: to share her personally tried-and-true recipe for helping all of us create and sustain an overall life of deliciousness—stemming from, as she calls it, her “magic room.”  Her books are, unexpectedly, so much more than just a collection of recipes. What you find when you begin to turn the pages is a gracious invitation into Lauren’s most precious space—her home and her kitchen. It’s as though you’ve dropped by for a visit as you hear her reassuring voice present a seemingly unlimited wealth of information, and practical, everyday, this-is-real-life advice on cooking, kitchens, family, and what it takes to capture the very essence of a home-sweet-home.  All of which she gives broadly and openly with uncommon generosity and candor.

Here she shares with you a “glimpse” of each of her two popular cookbooks:  an overview of each, what the critics think, chapter summaries, and most importantly, what readers just like you have to say about their discovery of, and delight in, learning to create a delicious and nurturing life (and home) for themselves and their families.
