Happy New Year!

I wish you all a terrific year ahead with loads of memorable meals, lively conversations and good health!

As the year opens, I am delighted to share some great news about my last two books and, of course, a new recipe.

First,  A Life of Spice made the top food memoirs list on Eat Your Books -http://www.eatyourbooks.com/community/best-cookbooks-of-2015

It also got some generous press –

Tampa Bay Times – http://www.tampabay.com/things-to-do/food/cooking/food-books-that-arent-cookbooks-to-gift-to-the-foodie-in-your-life/2256797

Huffington Post (Jamie Schler) – http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jamie-schler/holiday-gift-guide-for-the-food-lover-cookbooks_b_8681058.html

Kitchen Frolic – http://www.kitchenfrolic.ca/2015/12/list-goes-11-favourite-cookbooks-food-books-2015/

My fiction short story collection, The Devil in Us, ended the year on a high note as well!

I hope you are enjoying both books! If not, I hope you will take this opportunity to order them. As always, do post a review if you read the book. Your reviews are priceless and really help!

Finally, a recipe I created using Idaho potatoes made this very prestigious top ten list! So thrilled — Please do try my comfort food – potato curry!

Happy New Year, again!

There is so much to look forward to – new books, new stories, new recipes and much more! Please do stop by here and stay in touch!
