A strangely great newsletter for everyone who is curious about American food, its culture and history, and the delights of cooking in our everyday life.
Grew up in Philadelphia. Live in Brooklyn. Written four books best described as memoir, culinary and social history, along with some pretty good recipes.
Sharing what we've learned about living in place, growing plants, growing older, crafting, reading, and writing.
Bite-sized stories illustrating how recipes define, connect & inspire.
Weekly banter from my kitchen porch: food, wine, people, places, Maine, the Mediterranean, the whole wide world.
"McDermott is one of the greats, as natural at the craft as M.F.K. Fisher, Marion Cunningham and Laurie Colwin." --Wendell Brock, James Beard Award Winning Writer
