New Food idioms

Clotilde at Chocolate and Zucchini has issued a compendium of non-French food idioms sent in my readers for the give away she had of our book Edible French.

Here are a few of my illustrations of her article.  As always, so much fun to be involved by doing my favorite thing ever!

Cook's Cook

The Cook's Cook is a free high quality magazine and featuring an article about Clotilde Dusoulier and I.  How Edible French came to be published. 

It features a family recipe of Chestnut mille Feuille that we call a "coupable" a "guilty" :) 

The article is page 39.

A huge thanks to Clotilde for the opportunity to illustrate this fab book about French food idioms!

Edible French on pre-order !

I have written a brand new book based on my series ofFrench idioms.

Prendre de la brioche (gaining brioche), entre la poire et le fromage (between pear and cheese), manger son pain blanc (eating one's white bread)... This new book explores fifty of the most evocative French expressions related to food, with cultural notes, recipes, and whimsical watercolors by my talented friend Melina Josserand.

Edible French is scheduled to come out in early October, and it is available for pre-order now.
