Book description
At one time, I described myself as a cook, a driver, and a writer. I no
longer drive, but I still do write and I do still cook. And having
reached the delicious age of eighty-one, I realize that I have been
feeding other people and eating for a long time. I have been cooking
nearly all my life, so I have developed some philosophies.' With her
second cookbook, Maya Angelou turns her attention to good food,
well-made and eaten in moderation, and gives us time-tested recipes
along with intimate autobiographical sketches of how they came to be.
Packed with delicious dishes here can be eaten in small portions, many
times a day and, more importantly, converted into other mouth-watering
incarnations. Great Food, All Day Long is an essential reference for
everyone who wants to eat more healthily and joyfully - and a delightful
peek into the kitchen and heart of a remarkable woman. Maya Angelou,
playwright, actress, dancer, activist, filmmaker, is most famous for her
six volumes of autobiography beginning with I Know Why the Caged Bird
Sings.
