The Cook and the Gardener: A Year of Recipes and Notes from the French Countryside

This is one book that, the more I read, the more I disliked the author! She writes about her experience as a chef in the French country side and her relationship with the gardener and his wife. Sometimes she can be charming, but...sometimes she is annoying. I tried putting the book down and coming back to it, but after a few tries I decided that the problem was not in me, but in Amanda Hesser. Later on, I read John Thorne's review of the book and was relieved to discover that he felt the same way. If you like Amanda's reviews in the NY Times, you may like her book.
I'm sorry to say that she didn't grow on me.
