Cherries in Winter

Cherries in Winter (2009) by Suzan Colon. By economic necessity, Colon had to downsize her life. Part of that process was to dig up her grandmother's recipes and try cooking for hard times. A lot of those recipes are included in this thin volume, as well as Colon's reflections about living on a reduced income (hint: she's really not all that badly off). It makes for a quick and fairly entertaining read, and the recipes are definitely a nice touch. Not life-changing, however. Grade: B
