Friday Linkups: The Kitchen Counter Cooking School

It's Friday linkup time!  I'm linking up with the Book Blogger Hop hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer, Book Beginnings of Fridays hosted by Rose City Reader, and the Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice

This Week's Book Blogger Hop Question:
Where's your favorite place to read?

My Answer:
There's a chair in the living room that I love the idea of using as a reading chair but it very seldom happens.  The place where I read best is probably in bed before I fall asleep so I would say that's my favorite place.  I'm also pretty fond of the combination of a hot bath and a good book!

This week's book is actually one I have featured on here before but it's been years so I'm calling do over!  The Kitchen Counter Cooking School by Kathleen Flinn has been on my TBR since pre-blogging days and everyone I've come across who has read it LOVED it.  Not to mention that I've read 2 other books from Flinn and loved them both.  I've tried to start this book several times but for whatever reason it never quite took.  This time around I'm 100 pages in and going strong and I'm absolutely LOVING it!  It's definitely living up to the hype.

The Beginning:
Standing on the stage delivering the graduation speech at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris is not the optimal time for an existential crisis.

My Thoughts:
No that sounds like a particularly terrible time to have an existential crisis.  Though really I'm not particularly fond of existential crisis in any case.

The 56:
As she place the hard disks (these are mini frozen pizzas) on a cookie sheet, Andra said that she believed people can eat well inexpensively but she hadn't yet figured out how.

My Thoughts:
This is hard to do.  I've been cooking for years and there are still times when I know I could be eating better and for less money but I haven't quite figured it all out yet.

So what do you think?  Keep reading?  Where do you do most of your reading?
