Cooking

Dear Friends,

I’ve been thinking about what to cook for Christmas dinner. I love the Italian tradition of seven fishes, or fish in seven ways…but I don’t think I’ll do seven dishes! My favorite is Cioppino, a seafood stew – the Italian equivalent of the French bouillabaisse. It’s a famous San Francisco dish and one of my favorites.

Dear Friends,

The Zettls arrived last night, and I’ll fill you in soon on how my sessions with Remmer and Walter are going. Today, however, I thought I’d give you an “inside look” at a different aspect of my “preparations”…
