Book Review: Clementine in the Kitchen

I do not remember why I added this book to my Amazon wishlist a few years ago, but someone gave it to me for Christmas a few years ago. I think it was my mother-in-law. I finally picked it up having read through every other book I had, and two I bought that were set in or referenced France. I just have not been able to let go since my recent trip...the obsession is lingering.

So far, i love this book about Clementine the house cook of an expat American family living in France prior to WWII. I love the descriptions of the food and the markets, especially they way andouillette was mentioned, I can only laugh to myself and nod my head in agreement, it was not my favorite experience. but it was interesting.
