Acting on the theory that cookbooks are storybooks for grownups, SOMOS (the Society of the Muse of the Southwest) has compiled a cookbook filled with 84 short, true, well-crafted stories -- and the recipes that flavor them -- as a fresh, new take on the traditional community fundraising cookbook. SOMOS, a literary nonprofit organization located in beautiful Taos, NM, cast a wide net in its call for submissions and were delighted with the catch. Taos, after all, is a town teeming with creative types. The result, Storied Recipes, is a showcase for the talents of many members and friends of SOMOS -- storytellers of all stripes who love to cook as well as eat. Its stories speak of identity, culture, history, and family. Its recipes are meant to be made and enjoyed. Storied Recipes, a storybook for grownups, belongs on everyone's night table -- to be savored in bed.
