Tracie RichardsonThis book would not have been possible without Tracie Richardson. Tracie joined my class as a student of professional cooking. We both realized her love for food was best served by choosing a pen over a whisk. She urged me to sit down and put this bok together, and from this began a long relationship nurtured by tea on the front porch and hot cider in front of the fire. I am appreciative of her everlasting pushing and setting of deadlines, as it is because of her that this book is here for all to read and enjoy. Read More Read Less
