The Glass Kitchen

Here is another one hot off the presses by Linda Francis Lee.  Another foodie type but not really.  Full of fun, friendship, relationships, family, food and "the knowing"--one of those mystical concepts I usually don't care about but it really works in this story.  I love figuring out why the kitchen is called the Glass Kitchen and the antedotes Portia's grandmother leaves behind.  Full of history and food, it is now my favorite of the month.

Portia Cuthcart wakes up in her Manhattan apartment with the taste of chocolate cake in her mouth. Recognizing the strange gift that comes in the form of compulsions to bake, mix, boil, or cook any given thing at any given time, she heads to the store to pick up the ingredients. After years of ignoring her cooking talents in favor of being the perfect politician’s wife, Portia is excited and a little scared to know that her gift has come back. With the support of her two older sisters and a terrifyingly handsome investor, Portia begins to make her dream of opening a restaurant in New York City a very real possibility.
