On Christmas night a formal wager was made between my older sister Amy and I. I will cook each recipe she selects from "Barefoot in Paris" for her at least once, and then I may assume ownership of her new cookbook. No exceptions for food quality or mistakes! She did not drive a hard bargain.
On New Year's Eve, Amy marked all of the recipes in the book for me to cook. More than 40, but I say, bring on the challenge! I've always wanted to learn how to cook French food and though Ina Garten is no Julia Child the food will be delicious.
In my corner: EVERYONE! Let's face it - everyone wants me to win this one. Their mouths started watering at the first mention of veal chops and loin of pork. But I will be the ultimate winner! New skills, new cookbook, and lots of fun dinners with everyone I love. Who could ask for more?
