Gina’s pick for this month is TASTE: MY LIFE THROUGH FOOD by Stanley Tucci.

“TASTE reminds me that whomever you are and wherever you come from the sharing of food connects us,” Gina writes. “It’s impossible to read this book and not be drawn back into your memories to the feel of a certain room, the sounds and smells of that ONE special dish (that of course only your family makes perfectly). And, then to sharing that dish with family or people who will become family.

Plus, I learned how to make the “perfect” martini! PRICELESS!”
