I bought The Secret Life of Food today at the Hirshhorn Museum's gift shop, and could not be more pleased about my purchase. Clare Crespo is, in her own words, "completely and utterly obsessed with inspiring folks to be creative in the kitchen." I have now read the book cover to cover twice, and feel quite creatively inspired. I may not ever make cupcakes that look almost perfectly like sushi, but the fact that Clare Crespo can do such a thing makes me excited to try for more creative expression my own life.

This book will go with me to my next job. It will sit on my shelf waiting for the days when I can't seem to find an answer.
