It came!

I couldn't have asked for a better surprise in my mailbox; The Ox-Bow Cookbook. It's a lovely book, complete with many of my favorite dishes (except, alas, the Lemon Cookies). It also contains information about foraging for mushrooms, making beer and Bloody Mary's, stories about the famous Toast Bar and lots of pictures that took me right back to camp. It also came with a packet of Forget-Me Not seeds and an Ox-Bow postcard to send to someone. Just in time for the shift to fall cooking.

Look What I Found!


Well, I can't get an image of it to show up, but you can see it if you click on the link below;  it's The Ox-Bow Cookbook, and I can't believe I didn't know about this until now. Here is my confession: I've been to Ox-Bow a couple of times and have learned tons from excellent teachers and made good friends, all of which make Ox-Box a wonderful place to learn. But, every time I sign up to go, a little corner of my mind is thinking about the awesome food that they prepare on site and serve three times a day. In the midst of all the hard work, there is always the knowledge that the dinner bell will ring on time and a fine meal is not too far away. As a vegetarian, being someone who doesn't consume flesh can be a difficult thing when traveling (with the exception of India. There, it is common to be asked veg or no veg? I always thought it was lovely that they preferenced non-meat eaters). 

     At Ox-Bow, the chef takes care of everybody, no matter what their food requirements are. The last time I went, no cookbook existed, but now, lookee here! I can't wait to get my copy and make some of their  dishes for myself. Starting with their Lemon Cookies. I hope they are in the book!

The link below will take you right to the Ox-Store, where you can find the book:
