In the cookbook I tell the story of how my father was called to the German church's rectory in my hometown, St. Marys, Pennsylvania, and shown a whiskey bottle with a note in it that had been found hidden in the wall of the choir loft. It had been placed there on Christmas Eve 1926 by his father and two of his friends. The note inside said "Drunk by us on Christmas Eve" and was signed and dated by them. That story inspired this whole collection.
Of course the note inside the whiskey bottle in my story is far more dramatic but that is the nature of stories.
So if you don't have a copy of Fry Bacon, Add Onions this is your chance to grab it. I hope that you'll enjoy it!
Thanks for reading.
