"For over a hundred years life in my town revolved around three meals a day. We fitted our lives around the family mealtime schedule. Then some things began to change. About half of all women now work outside the home. More people are into fitness, exercise and sporting events after work and get home late. There are more outside activities such as classes, clubs, cultural events. We often eat out.either fast food or in restaurants. Everyone you know is busy," says Helen Exum. "We now decide a day's activities and then fit our meals around it. More people are eating in ones and twos. This means we now plan food in a variety of ways. Sometimes we need something fast and easy.fired rice, an omelet, stir-fried beef and broccoli, or frozen pizza, thawed and heated. Sometimes we are on diets, either low-salt, low-sugar, or low fat. Other times we want something dramatic to serve the family or guests on the weekend - stuffed Cornish hen, homemade black bread, or an ultimate chocolate cheesecake with chocolate leaves." This book is about all these things, different ways of coping in the kitchen positively and liking it. Written in the chatty, relaxed way that made The Chattanooga Cookbook a best seller, this book includes people stories as well as recipes. They are either funny, informative, or inspiring. Plus this, there are over a hundred pages of pictures. "In other books, I've always wondered what the people look like, how they serve their food. This shows people with a wide variety of lifestyles. Many of them are young friends and family who have had a great influence on my cooking today," says the author. Helen Exum's Cookbook, with recipes from people in her city as well as from chefs and friends all over the world, is written in the same warm style as her first book, and is guaranteed to make you hungry as you find easy recipes to fit your lifestyle." - excerpt from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
