....

​ I truly have been a blessed traveler.  I survived all the trials that should have killed me in Cooking Disasters.  I have had an equal amount of incredible moments that I wrote about in Cooking Wonders.  Then, I went on to write about the memorable people who have crossed my ways in Cooking Along My Path.  In that book, I wrote about maybe 25 people whom I'll never forget.  Yes, I've had remarkable encounters.  But, I've had more than just 25 unforgettable people in my life.  I had to write Volume Two.  There was no way around it.  Cooking Along My Path 2 had to be compiled.  

So, once again, I introduce you to people I've met on my life's journey.  Some of these encounters date back quite a while.  Others, not so much.  I met some of these friends before I seriously started gathering recipes in my travels.  Several people had to send me recipes for this book.  I never claim to be any kind of success in the kitchen.  My sister got those genes while I write, draw, and photograph.  But, I must say, I'm very pleased with the success I've had in creating these recipes and then photographing them for the book.  I only collect recipes that I can actually make.  None of them are all that difficult to whip up, but they have all tasted delicious -- even in my kitchen.

Come with me this time as I wander Liberia, Indonesia, Morocco, Romania, Belgium, Estonia, France, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador, Belize, Haiti, Moldova, Fiji, Nauru, Australia, Brazil, and Togo.
