Chicken Soup for the Soul: Food and Love Review and Giveaway ENDS 3/10/12

I was recently given the opportunity to read and review Chicken Soup for the Soul: Food and Love: 101 Stories Celebrating Special Times with Family and Friends.  Every once in a while I need a good pick-me-up.  I love to head off to bed with a good book, snuggle under the sheets, and read something that will help lead me into happy slumbers.  The stories in this book I could totally relate to.  Let me start by saying I NEVER cooked, nor did I do ANYTHING in the kitchen before I got married.  So, I laughed, and I cried as I read some of these stories.  I could SO relate to so much of what they were saying.  But, as life went on, I learned to cook and now I actually LOVE to cook and experiment in the kitchen for my family.  There is even a section in the book entitled "Little Helpers" that focuses on our little helpers that are in the kitchen, pulling at our legs...wanting to do SOMETHING!  So, this book spoke to me on many levels.  I found myself not only reading this right before bed, but reading it in my downtime in between picking up the kids from school, waiting at the doctor's office, waiting for my computer to start up...I really couldn't put this down.  One of my favorite things about this book is how it touches so many areas of food...and love...and memories...all of which are so intertwined!  My mother passed away a little over a year ago and I wept through some of the stories in the section "In Memory Of..." thinking of her and some of our cooking stories.  This book is perfect for food lovers (so, basically, any of us...LOL!), cooks, and (as with all of the Chicken Soup for the Soul books)anyone who enjoys uplifting and inspiring stories.
There are also recipes sprinkled throughout the book...I cannot wait to try a few of them.  LOVE this book!
