Most important are the suggestions on how to adapt to the food-allergic lifestyle. Highly recommended for public libraries. -- Library Journal, September, 2005

About the Author:

In addition to her work in the theater, and a variety of writing jobs including a weekly romance advice column for Oxygen Media and AOL Teens, Cybele has had a lifelong passion for cooking and food history. She grew up on Cape Cod in a family of notoriously excellent cooks, with a large organic garden, which was harvested to cook delicious and exciting meals throughout her childhood. "Sustainable Cuisine" was a family way of life, and a tenet she continues to practice in her inventive and healthy recipes today.
Cybele was taught to cook as a very young child by her grandmother, who became a superlative home chef during her many years living in Italy. She believes that recipes are a form of heritage, and over the years, has learned to cook dishes handed down from her Southern ancestors, as well as her Eastern European great-grandmother, a famously gifted and enthusiastic cook who reputedly spent so much time at the oven she could lift out hot casseroles with her bare hands.
Cybeles eclectic food background has inspired a love of a wide range of cuisines, and in addition to recipes she learned during her fifteen years spent working in restaurants, she is constantly expanding her repertoire. She has traveled the world extensively, making local food the focus of her trips. Food is her passion, and cooking fresh, delicious and healthy meals for her family and friends is a daily pleasure. Cybele learned about hypoallergenic cooking first hand when her son was diagnosed with severe food allergies, and mad turning it into a delicacy her priority. She lived in Westchester, NY with her husband, Broadway leading man Adam Pascal, and their sons Lennon and Montgomery.
