One of our noted List members, T Mike Fletcher, called me the other day and mentioned that his wife had written a book which he told me was titled , EUROPEAN PASTRIES. He got that wrong, and, boys, keep your zippers zipped. It is EUROPEAN TARTS by Helen Fletcher and is available as a POD (publish on demand) through Amazon. Helen could not obtain a proper photographer, so T. Mike had to pick up the slack. I ordered a copy for my wife as a Christmas present and will undoubtedly grimace at the horrid photography once it arrives. He probably shot the tarts with a Ha$$elblad or, even worse, with some Nikon digital. <shudder> The book is inexpensive and most of the recipes do not involve much, if any, cooking. I hold Helen in high regard for having stuck with Mike for all these years. The woman deserves praise for that. Mike is an impossible man. I spent an hour one time driving him across Philadelphia. Well, in his defense, he does appreciate Zeiss lenses, old and new.
