Today Betsy had a solo concert in White Plains (Indian music, Arvo
Part, the Bach/Gounod Ave Maria) but still managed to put together a
nice dinner. Pierre Franey's scallops in a cream/mushroom sauce, baked
rice with pine nuts, salad
.........

Thank you for mentioning Pierre Franey. He was one of the greatest
influences in American cooking, showing the path from classical
French to every day American; being an immense influence on Craig
Claiborne and by extension on the New York Times readership, and
remarkably writing two cookbooks concentrating on fast home cooking
of amazingly good food. Every time I pick up one of his books I wonder
whether anyone else still has them and remembers him. Thanks for
the I hope enduring memories.
