February's title is written by author/chef/Episcopalian priest Robert Farrar Capon. From the back cover:
...this surprising and thought-provoking treatise on everything from prayer to poetry to puff pastry...Supper of the Lamb...talks about festal and ferial cooking, emerging as an inspirational voice extolling the benefits and wonders of old-fashioned home cooking in a world of fast food and prepackaged cuisine.They had me at prayer, poetry and puff pastry.
Robert Farrar Capon
