Just Because

And now a detour into the world of food.

David Lebovitz' blog is one that I always read. He is an American pastry chef who is currently living in Paris--what a dream! His writing is open, smart, funny, and full of super interesting and useful information about food, cooking, baking and eating. Here is a small taste of Lebovitz' writing from one of his recent posts, in Q & A format:

Do you agree with Julia Child, who said “A party without a cake is just a meeting”?

DL: Ha! Good one, Madame Child. Although one could replace the word “cake” with “cocktails,” “ribs,” “chips and guacamole,” or “wine and cheese,” and still have a pretty good party.
