I was so excited to find The Sharper Your Knife, The Less You Cry at the airport when we were flying to Argentina. It's the perfect book to lose yourself in, especially on vacation. But even if you're just on your living room couch, a chapter will leave you feeling like you just spent some time in Paris.
Kathleen Flinn ended up at thefamed culinary school, Le Cordon Bleu after she was let go from her company in London. Not knowing what to do, she talked to her boyfriend back in the States and he urged her to follow her lifelong dream and apply to Le Cordon Bleu. The book tells the story of Flinn's dreamy experience at the school, as well as her life in Paris. Ok, well it's not all dreamy, but she gives the reader a window into a world that only a few get to really experience.
This is one of those books that I was sorry to see end. I can't recommend it enough.

You should check out “Garlic & Sapphires.” Such a fun book.
