I read all of her books in the 90s. I think I will now return to her writings after reading your blog. How wonderful to be reminded of Laurie Colwin. I read all of her books in the 90s.

I'm a big fan, but had let her slip into the distance. I remember reading "Home Cooking" and "More Home Cooking" while riding on the El in Chicago. I laughed and laughed and the other passengers probably thought I was insane. I especially remember a chapter on what to cook for yourself after you come home from a dinner party where the food was inedible, and how to make a Christmas cake that you start six months in advance and keep in the back of a dark closet. Her novels are priceless too. Kelly,

Because today I found and bought a copy of Home Cooking at a flea market, and from the very moment I opened the book and began reading her warm, delightful, and oh so funny stories, I felt I had found a true treasure!
