Dinner & A Book - Kafka's Soup by Mark Crick

 This week on Dinner and a book we'll look at food and drink as seen thru the eyes of several authors. We'll prepare special dishes from Patricia Cornwell's Unnatural Exposure and then a Raymond Chandler style recipe that Sam Spade might have tried. Join me and my guest Joe Dimaggio from The Stray Dog in New Buffalo on the next Dinner and a Book.

Today our theme is food and drink through the eyes of various authors. In our first book, The Book Lovers' Cookbook by Shaunda Kennedy Wenger and Janet Kay Jensen we'll look at recipes from famous authors and especially 2 recipes from Patricia Cornwell's Unnatural Exposure. Patricia Cornwell's forensic specialist Kay Scarpetta combines her job of performing autopsies and cooking up No Fuss Crab Cakes and Old Fashioned coleslaw.
