How to feed friends and Influence People

My father is 94 years old, in a nursing home in Honolulu Hawaii, and wanted cheese blintz's from the Carnegie Deli. A daunting task since they do not deliver to Hawaii. This book was an answer to my need to provide a taste of a memory for my father. The book is written tongue and check, a must to get the flavor of the Carnegie in NYC. My blintz turned out exactly as those served at the deli. Dry ice..over night delivery..$100 cost and my father's ultimate delight. The chef at the nursing home requested the recipe too. I have purchased the book to give to friends. It is an easy read and delights not only taste buds but the humor that we all need today in these stress filled times.
