Title: Lost Recipes
Review: This is a good read. The critics who talk about the recipes not really being lost miss the premise of the book. What Marion Cunningham is telling us is that these old family-style recipes aren't in use much anymore, because only 30%-40% of people cook at home these days. Mrs. Cunningham was a food maven in the San Francisco Bay Area for years, and I always enjoyed her column in the San Francisco Chronicle for her wit and common sense approach. Alas, I heard from her daughter, Catherine, that Marion (in her 80s now) is failing. This is probably her last book.
