In A Life of Spice celebrated writer Monica Bhide explores her romance with food. As in any romance, there are moments of great heartache and unbelievable happiness; betrayals and breakups; and, of course, intimacy. The essays in this book show how food affects all the areas of our lives: family, friends, love, culture, faith, and more. They capture the delights of cooking as wooing and of food as nurturer, and the sadness of the heartbreak kitchen. This collection of powerful and thought-provoking vignettes makes us examine our relationship with food deeply-and what food really means to us. A Life of Spice gives readers a front-row view-and deliciously stolen peeks behind the curtain-into those choice moments that define a lifetime. Celebrating the powerful memories of food that bind us all together, A Life of Spice features essays that first appeared on Monica's blog and in national and international publications, as well as new, never-before-read tales of family and food.
