          136

OR DREARY DETAILS THAT YOU CERTAINLY HAVE NO INTENTION OF REMEMBERING
And the introduction starts out with:

Some women, it is said, like to cook.

This book is not for them.

This book is for those of us who hate to, who have learned, through hard 
experience, 

that some activities become no less painful through repetition: childbearing, 
paying 

taxes, cooking. This book is for those of us who want to fold our big 
dish&shy;water 

hands around a dry martini instead of a wet flounder, come the end of a long 
day.
It's quite an enjoyable book, and even better, it has 180 easy recipes! Carrie

The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to
stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.
