My Book, Mushroom: A Global History

Availability

You’ll find Mushroom: A Global History widely available on many book sellers’ sites.

The book deals with the culinary history of mushrooms. It is NOT a book about mycology, nor does it pretend to be.

Instagram with a Florida Flavor

Peppers, tomatoes, squash, all New World food, thanks to native American influence. In gas line, lots of cars, pumps emptying. Prepping for Irma. Neighborhood restaurant close by. Waiting for a table.
