Cooking can be intimidating to some of us, and if you are one of the millions of people who doubt your abilities in the kitchen, then you have picked the right book. This book contains simple recipes... More > that yield outstanding results.
This book is number one in the beginning of a series of several cookbooks I plan to write. Each book will include few enough recipes that you should be able to make most of them in the course of a month, or if you prefer, you can make them throughout the year. Either way, your guests and/or family will never forget the amazing dishes you have created.
All of the recipes in this book have been designed with the home cook in mind. All of the ingredients in these recipes are common and can be easily found at your local supermarket. The preparation of the ingredients requires only a basic knowledge of kitchen equipment and measurement. In addition,
methods of preparation in this book range from beginner to intermediate.< Less
This book is listed “G” to get it onto the menu; Lulu requires registration to see adult-themed items. But the book is a “R”-rated item with some very adult themes. The... More > intended audience is not children.
It is the story of Leon LeGros, a young man who sought fortune in the South Pacific. Leon, today a resident of Luxembourg, led an extraordinary life, as a chef, as a cook in the mining camps of the Solomon Islands and Australia, where he matured before returning to Europe and a more responsible life. Today, he is a parking lot attendant, a sacrifice for the one to whom he has dedicated this book. In the process of getting there, Leon has lived several lifetimes of adventure that far exceed anything many of us have experienced.
There is eroticism in the book, though it is not salacious. This book was not written to titillate; but to document the life of an extraordinary man, warts and all, and to talk about how his life has changed in more than five decades.< Less
