Many people, family and friends, helped make this cookbook a reality and to them I offer my gratitude and love. My husband, Duncan, who didn’t expect to spend his summer selecting photos, encouraged me in every way and made it possible for us to meet our deadline. My family tested recipes when I was in a crunch and cheered me on.
Many friends who offered advice and support and tested recipes, especially my friends the Reynolds, who returned from Scandinavia with photos of food and props for my photo shoot. And to those friends who offered treasured family recipes and the stories behind the recipes, thank you very much.
