What a wonderful opportunity to honor the relationship among mothers and children who share the kitchen bond. My personal appreciation of the power of this relationship begins with my grandmother Mae. This book will catalog and honor the legacy of such relationships. Thank you for your efforts which make it possible.

Among other things, my mother has instilled in me a passion for cooking and eating well.

CONGRATULATIONS!
We have obtained all 35 members that I originally requested, and now the fun begins – I start cooking your recipes!
Here’s how it works:
*I have set up an email account: clare.cookbook@gmail.com
*Send the recipes you want to submit to that email address and how it relates to the topic of the book
*Include a short story or picture that goes along with recipe (if you chose to do so)
*I will work with each person on their contribution
*Make sure to cite recipes if you have taken them from another source
I will be letting everyone know about copyright rules regarding recipes from different sources.
THANK YOU
Can’t wait to get started!

Hi Clare,
I’m an old friend of your mom’s and would be pleased to contribute to your book. I’ll look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks to everyone for their commitments – I wanted to write a quick note about some responses I’ve gotten from cookbook authors/bloggers I really respect:
Nava Atlas (author of my favorite cookbook, Vegan Express, Broadway Books, and other vegetarian and vegan staples) wrote me a wonderful email saying:
“I think your book idea sounds great. I think food connects generations and creates memorable rituals.”
Amy Cook (author of the vegan food blog at vegcooking.com) also responded saying she would like to contribute a recipe and is passing the word on to other food bloggers!
I am so grateful for the support of two cooks I look up to, and I am so grateful that you all have supported my idea as well!
More news later!
