I hated having no Blazes out last year so hope to make up for it this year and next. Working on a trilogy right now. Enjoy the hummus! Isabel Hi, Janice, glad you enjoyed No Holding Back!

I looking forward to your books in April and May. I'm hoping they're available in audible format like "No Holding Back" which I thoroughly enjoyed.

It just never turns out the same way as that little hole-in-the-wall place. It is a 3000 mile trek (one-way), to get to it, I'm certainly not going to do it often, LOL! But next time I'm within 20 miles or so, I'll make sure to get there. Huh. The things I never think of...a class to learn to write about food. But it makes sense. Thanks for filling me in.

Save yourself the trip out for hummus, make your own! The food writing course would be instruction on how to write articles about food for magazines, probably tips on restaurant reviewing, travel articles, that kind of thing. At least that's what I am thinking. I'm looking forward to the chance to try something new. My first foray into non-fiction! Wait, does that mean no love scenes? "The hot dog slid slowly into its bun . . ." Better stop there. Isabel Hi, Cathy! Save yourself the trip out for hummus, make your own!

DH and I were just reminiscing about a Lebanese restaurant in the Denver metro area that serves the best hummus we've ever eaten. (Not to mention good chai!) We vowed to go there again next time we visit. :-) What is a food writing course?? Okay...off to find a snack. Maybe cookies...DH made a bunch of yummy cookies last night. Gotta love a man who can - and does - cook. :-D Mmm….you’re making me hungry!!

I've never made tahini but I imagine it's like making peanut butter, just whirl up sesame seeds with a little oil? I'm kidding. Yes, some things even I don't bother doing from scratch!

I’m kidding. Yes, some things even I don’t bother doing from scratch!

Not really, but there is a Middle Eastern Sam's type store (think cumin in 25 pound bags) a couple of blocks away and they have giant bags of sesame seeds. I like hummus because of the protein, as well. I’m surprised you didn’t tell us to make our own tahini!

I saw and loved all those you mentioned. I don't think I've ever met anyone else who has seen Tampopo (or at least it never came up). That movie is on my queue at Netflix, because I'm dying to see it again, but it's not been released yet, and so it sits hopefully. That egg yolk scene (and the shrimp) would make great Blaze material, except words would never do it justice. Okay, I'm getting hungry now. Isabel Jo, we are sisters in foodie movies.
