Eating Local in Normandy

I recently finished reading On Rue Tatin by Susan Hermann Loomis, and I want to recommend it to anyone looking for an entertaining memoir. Loomis writes about her experiences transplanting her husband, toddler, and herself to Normandy, France to renovate an old convent. Loomis is a cook and a food writer, so much of the book talks about her experiences of eating local in Normandy. A nice perspective from another country, and good recipes, too. Her descriptions of the local farmer's market shows the universal appeal of reaching out and making those connections between grower and consumer.
