Whoa, Dude!

Mark's post on speed made me laugh today. Full of excellent cooking advice, such as: "Reach for the white wine; apply liberally to the cook."

THE ZODIAC OF PARIS is on sale now...

"Seven years ago one of us wandered into a small bookshop near the Luxembourg Palace in Paris. A volume half-clad in red Morocco sat intriguingly apart on a lower shelf ..."

Intrigued? Get the book. It's on sale now for almost $10 off the cover price and it's in stock at BN.com (it'll be back in stock at Amazon soon).

(Hope you'll forgive the self-promotion ... This book was such fun to write, and I'm excited to see it in print.)

Rue is three-fourths of true.
