Hi, Brigid, I just got Morgan Freeman's book about Caribbean cooking. I haven't had enough time to look at it as thoroughly as I would like, but it is just a beautiful book. I, too, am interested in the historical aspect of recipes, and love to try new dishes and cooking techniques.

Dark and Dangerous cookies! I bet they really are. You could probably make yourself before you wanted to stop eating the. Ha! Don't put too many on the plate to tempt anyone!
